The Book of Life, administered by the Jewish Foundation of Greater Toronto, is UJA Federation’s planned gift and endowment arm. It is an ever-growing archival collection of Jewish Family and congregational stories from those who have left a legacy to ensure the future of the Jewish Community.

In 2013, 19 new donors and their stories were added to the Book of Life. The new donors were honoured at a dinner and reception at the Beth Emeth Synagogue. Congregation BINA was proud to be one of the 19. Our story, as recorded in the Book of Life, can be found on their website.

In doing this, the Board of Congregation BINA has protected our most precious possessions: our memories of the past and our hopes for the future. We wish to pass on our values and life experiences to our future generations, so that they know that they have a rich legacy of which to be proud and one that we pray serves to inspire their lives.
