Celebrating Your Giving Spirit

Because of our generous donors, Cherry Hill Seminary is starting the year strong and healthy!

This year 83 wonderful supporters helped us raise more than $20,000, or nearly 20% of our annual budget. Some of you are monthly recurring givers, others simply stepped up when asked and dug a little deeper. We love how the Votaries Alumni Circle harnessed the Giving Tuesday energy on December 2 to take us over the top! If your name is not in the list below let us know so we can blow your horn. And if you meant to do something before now, it’s never too late to press the button below.

  • Let your imagination run wild!
