Pathways Campaign
DONATE NOW How Can the Colorado Child Care Tax Credit Help You?
The New Year provides a time to reflect on the year gone by. Many of us traveled different paths this year – physically or mentally, professionally or personally, as a family, as an individual, as a member. These paths, in one way or another, lead us to HEA. No matter what path we have taken, HEA is our Jewish home, our Jewish connection, our Jewish community Alliance.
Your contribution to the Pathways Campaign supports HEA in meeting the needs of our congregation with investments in:
- Making shul participation accessible through live streaming and improved security protocols and safety training.
- Attracting and retaining talented professionals who are dedicated to the needs of our members, by providing competitive salaries and benefits that keep up with inflation.
- Engaging young families and expanding social programming for empty-nesters.
- Supporting our families with tuition assistance for preschool and religious school, as well as Jewish summer camps and teen adventures in Israel.
- Relaunching our youth group (USY) to engage our teens in Jewish life and connect them to one another.
- Caring for our elders and those experiencing illness and other challenges through the work of our Chesed Committee.
- Embracing the full gamut of our membership - including interfaith families, LGBTQ people, and Jews of color - through the efforts of our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee.
Please join us in making a donation to the HEA Pathways Campaign. Many Paths. One Alliance.
DONATE NOW How Can the Colorado Child Care Tax Credit Help You?
This year’s Pathways Campaign, Many Paths. One Alliance., captures the diversity of those pathways and highlights the stories of our members. In the weeks leading up to Rosh Hashanah, our weekly HEAdlines email features seven members sharing the impact HEA programming has on their lives. Click to hear their stories.
Hearing these stories reinforces our commitment to cultivating a synagogue that supports the many different ways our members seek Judaism in their lives.

Your Donation and Its Tax Advantages
The Colorado Child Care Contribution Credit, commonly referred to as the 5C tax credit, was established to encourage greater private support of Colorado child care programs, like those provided by HEA. Since your monetary contribution to HEA qualifies for this tax credit, you may be able to decrease the after-tax cost of your gifts by more than 50 percent.
The effect of the credit is that half of your donation to HEA - as long as it is designated to the Pathways Campaign - is offset by a reduction of your Colorado income taxes. You will still be able to claim your full contribution as a charitable deduction on your Federal and State income tax returns if you itemize deductions.
Please consult with your tax adviser to determine exactly how the credit will affect you.
