I’ll cut straight to the point:
Does anyone here in the Coffee-Room know who (and how) I could contact for financial donations needed by my shul?The background:
I am a member of a shul in Ramat Beit Shemesh A. Just a regular guy who davens and learns there, I’m not a gabbai or askan or anything – just a shul goer who cares and wants to help.The shul is awesome in many ways, but is in desperate need of a new air-conditioning system. I’m not trying to give a sob story here, but suffice it to say it requires a major overhaul which would probably cost around $100k to do it properly. (It needs about $300k for all the remaining work to, but the air-conditioning is more pressing.)
If anyone has tips or advice on who I could contact, or how to go about it, then please reply to me here (or am I allowed to give a personal email address here?), and I am happy to discuss, or pass you on to the actual gabbaim.
Thanks.

Try speaking to a few of them.

Can you all have a 5 year loan for this ac and pay 200 per year each? Also maybe some of the people in the shul are in construction business and can offer a discount for the job

Why don’t you network in RBS? enough people there with deep pockets
