Here are four special opportunities to contribute:
• Receive a DVD of the wonderful 80-minute film, Yiddish Theater: A Love Story. Shown at the San Francisco Jewish Film Festival in 2006, this film has received rave reviews including from the Los Angeles Times, New York Magazine, and About.com ("one of the top ten documentaries of 2007"). The film is a portrait of Zypora Spaisman, founder and grand dame of the Folksbiene Yiddish Theater, and her loving work to sustain Yiddish theater. Included are moving interviews with other living legends of the Yiddish theater. The DVD sells for $24.99 + tax and shipping at www.newlovefilms.com and is a gift to you for a donation to KlezCalifornia of $54 or more. Please indicate on the "Purpose" line of the donation page (or in a note with your mailed check) whether you would like us to send you the DVD or the note cards, below. If you choose the DVD, the tax-deductible amount is your donation less $24.99. If you choose not to receive a gift, the full amount of your donation is tax-deductible.
• Receive a package of eight beautiful, brightly-colored, 5"x7" music-themed greeting cards designed by Sonoma County Jewish artist Nina Bonos (see Music Notes III cards at www.ninabonos.com). These cards sell for $18 plus tax and are a gift to you for a donation to KlezCalifornia of $54 or more. Please indicate on the "Purpose"
line of the donation page (or in a note with your mailed check) whether
you would like us to send you the notes cards or the DVD, above. If you choose the cards, the
tax-deductible amount is your donation less $18. If you choose not to receive a gift, the full amount of your donation is tax-deductible.
• Honor the life of a loved one or friend with a posting on the KlezCalifornia Honor Wall. You may find this particularly fitting if the person you are honoring spoke Yiddish or liked Yiddish, or klezmer music, or had a parent who did. Please tell us the name of the person you are honoring and, if you wish, something about his or her life. Use the "Purpose" line of the donation form, email info[at]klezcalifornia.org, or enclose a note with your mailed check. Your message (up to 100 words) will be on the Honor Wall for one year. You may post on the Honor Wall for a donation to KlezCalifornia of any amount.
• Tell others about your personal Yiddish heritage with a posting on the KlezCalifornia Honor Wall. We celebrate Yiddish culture in a participatory way and would treasure knowing your family experience with Yiddish. Use the "Purpose" line of the donation form, email info[at]klezcalifornia.org, or enclose a note with your mailed check. Your message (up to 100 words) will be on the Honor Wall for one year. You may post on the Honor Wall for a donation to KlezCalifornia of any amount.
