Give CANDLES

the gift of

chai (life)

in 2013!

This year is very special to CANDLES because it marks the 18th anniversary of the museum's first opening in 1995. In Jewish tradition the number 18 is associated with life and luck. Celebrate this anniversary by becoming a member for $18, and your support will breathe new life into our organization.
