Throughout the next three years, the 28 rabbis of RLI VI will engage in extensive distance learning through video webinars, hevruta study, small group elective courses, and local projects. The capstones of each year’s activities are a three-week summer residency and a 10-day winter residency at the Institute in Jerusalem. RLI VI begins its first summer at the Hartman Institute on July 4, 2016. The rabbis are chosen through a rigorous, multi-year process of applications, interviews and background research. Their commitment to the program must include time for their studies in Israel and by Distance Learning throughout the year, as well as securing financial support from their communities and/or local Federations. Rabbi Lauren Berkun, Shalom Hartman Institute of North America Director of Rabbinic and Synagogue Programs, said the Institute has made advancement of rabbinic leadership one of its core missions for more than 30 years. “We invest our resources, faculty, and staff in helping rabbis explore the multiple voices within our Jewish tradition that can help them find personal meaning and purpose for their unique rabbinic journeys,” Rabbi Berkun said. The RLI curriculum focuses on the main pillars of the scholarship and mission of the Shalom Hartman Institute: Judaism and Modernity, Religious Pluralism, Jewish and Democratic Israel, Jewish Peoplehood, Judaism and the World. “Equipped with a new array of texts, and a values-based methodology for applying traditional text to contemporary challenges, RLI rabbis are able to preach, write, teach, and lead with greater sophistication and depth,” Rabbi Berkun said. “Fellows share that they feel empowered to take new risks, innovate new program models, institute new creative forms of prayer and ritual, and make Torah learning a more central component of their community.” Tisha B’Av services: Saturday, August 13th at 9 PM and Sunday, August 14th at 9:10AM. We commemorate the destruction of the First & Second Temples. Page 4 Congregation Sons of Israel Summer 2016 Sharing a workload makes everything a little easier. This is true for the most basic things, like preparing a meal, or for something with as many moving parts as the High Holidays at the CSI! Each of us adds meaning to our communal services by being there, and more so by helping us ensure a smooth, comfortable experience. We invite you to help us by USHERING either in the sanctuary or at one the doors. You can assist with our annual budgetary requirements by purchasing RESERVED SEATS and/or RESERVED PARKING. CHAIR SET UP is Sunday, 9/25, from 9 -11 AM. More hands on deck makes easy work of it! Would you like your loved ones remembered in the MEMORIAL BOOKLET? The sooner we know, the easier it is to prepare the booklet. Please contact [email protected] or call her at 762 2700 to volunteer or for information.

A simple web search for this subject will return over 100,000 results. Most importantly: This is not meant to be professional tax or legal advice. It is highly recommended that you consult your tax adviser, estate planner and investment advisor to determine if this is the right move for you. Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) - Taxpayers over 70½ are required to withdraw IRA funds to meet a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD). The money you contribute using a QCD is not included in your adjusted gross income on your tax return, a better option than listing the donation as a simple charitable contribution. A QCD is generally a nontaxable distribution made directly by the trustee of your IRA (other than a SEP or SIMPLE IRA) to an organization eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions. You must be at least age 70½ when the distribution was made. Donation of Stock - If you have stock in your investment portfolio that has greatly appreciated over time, you can donate it and get a deduction on your tax return for the fully appreciated value. If you sell the same stock, you would have to pay tax on the capital gain and that gain will go into the calculation of the additional 3.8% Net Investment Income Tax on high incomers as mandated by The Affordable Care Act. Donor Advised Fund (DAF) - A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a program of a public charity that allows donors to make contributions to the charity, become eligible to take an immediate tax deduction, and then make recommendations for distributing the funds to qualified nonprofit organizations on their own timetable. With charities that have donor-advised fund programs, you can make irrevocable contributions to the charity, which establishes a DAF on your behalf. Establishing a donor-advised fund can be a particularly useful strategy at year-end because it allows you to make a gift and take the tax deduction immediately, but does not require you to decide at that point to which charities that money will go. It can be a great way to offset a year with unexpectedly high earnings, or to address the tax implications of year-end bonuses.
