Membership
The Mikvah Emunah Society (MES) is operated by a group of dedicated volunteers and a small staff. We run the Wallerstein Mikvah, and we sponsor educational programs at local shuls. We were one of two major donors helping Young Israel Shomrai Emunah build a community keilim mikvah.
To meet these communal needs, we need the financial help of the entire community, not just those who are regular mikvah users. Providing a safe and comfortable mikvah is costly.
Mikvah user fees fall significantly short of funding day-to-day MES operations. Without community donations we could not operate. The mitzvah of taharat hamishpacha beautifies and sanctifies our entire community, and it requires the financial support of the entire community.
Of course, the most important reason to become an MES Member is to support this vital mitzvah. However certain levels of membership entitle you to added benefits, including counting toward your ma’aser or waived mikvah fees. All membership dues are also tax-deductible as allowed by law.
The membership period is January – December.
