As we move into 2023, a new year rife with new possibilities, I'm reminded of our immense potential – both individually and as a community – to truly change the world. With a strong community constantly striving to selflessly share with others, we come ever closer to achieving Rav Ashlag's vision of a world without pain and suffering. And if you believe that you have improved your life thanks to the wisdom of Kabbalah, it's worth noting two things: first, the more you appreciate your growth, the more you will continue to grow. And second, the more you push yourself to share with others, the more blessings and miracles you'll see in your life.
Your support of The Kabbalah Centre is constantly closing the gap between where we collectively are and our limitless potential. As you push yourself to share this life-changing wisdom with the entire world, you are revealing Light and removing darkness. I deeply appreciate the work you do to bring joy and fulfillment to thousands across the globe.
Here are some projects you've helped make possible in the last three months:
Zohar Project: 10k Zohars shared in response to Hurricane Ian
After Hurricane Ian caused destruction in Florida, Kabbalah Centre volunteers stepped up to help their local communities by distributing over 10,000 Zohars to people and places impacted by the weather. From our volunteers' accounts, the power of the Zohar was inspiring and encouraged people to give back even during uncertain times.
Give the Gift of Consciousness Matching Campaign
I am so thankful for the generous support The Kabbalah Centre received during the holiday season. Thanks to 1,700 supporters and 35 matching donors, we reached 76% of our goal in less than two months! I would also like to extend a warm welcome and thank you to all the new donors who contributed. Your gifts will bring Light into many people's lives in the coming year.
Local Centres Supporting Neighbors Around the World
Centres all over the world organized local outings to give back to their communities in need. The London, New York, Berlin, Los Angeles, and Panama Centres each partnered with local non-profits that support unhoused women, children, and adults. Together, nearly 200 volunteers gave out over 2,500 coats, meals, toys, clothes, and other essentials to their neighbors in need. Additionally, hundreds of children in the United Kingdom received Monica Berg's first children's book, The Gift of Being Different.
Annual donor gathering
Monica and I had the privilege of hosting hundreds of supporters at our Annual Donor Gathering this year. We were able to express our gratitude for those who have dedicated themselves to sharing Kabbalah with others. Without your efforts, many would not have had the chance to study this ancient wisdom. Watch it here:
2021 Annual Report
Thanks in large part to the hard work of our supporters, The Kabbalah Centre had a successful year in 2021. Through scholarships, the new Youth Program, local volunteers, our teachers, and the Zohar Project, hundreds of thousands of people around the world have been able to access this wisdom and change their lives for the better.
Additionally, in the past three months we've added:
Thank you for your donations to these and all of our efforts to bring kabbalistic wisdom and tools to the world. I feel blessed to have you in our community and am forever grateful for your generous support.
Sincerely,
Michael Berg
