Membership Dues

Update: Next fiscal year, 2024-2025, Tikvat Israel will be switching to a pledge based dues model.

No one is ever turned away due to financial hardship! Newlyweds are given the first year of membership free (USCJ policy) and all other new members receive a 50% discount in the first year of membership dues. There is a special rate for families with children enrolled in our Early Childhood Center (ECC). Please let us know if you are a Jewish professional.

Dues do not need to be paid all at once. You can set up monthly or quarterly billing with the office. If you are paying dues through a brokerage or retirement account, please make arrangements through the synagogue office: 301-762-7338.
