Bonnie & Alan
Cohen Memorial Fund for Carolyn Gordon
Established by her loving daughter and son-in-law, Bonnie and
Alan Cohen
Over the years so
many people have asked,
“Is there anything I can do for you?”
I am now reaching out to you with a personal request.
My goal is to have 1,000 people
participate in her memorial fund. The amount you donate is
not as important to me as the fact that you care.
If you have already donated, I am
forever grateful.
Thank you for being part of the
mitzvah,
Bonnie

The Cohen family
is well-known throughout Jerusalem for their home hospitality,
warmth and generosity. Bonnie Cohen is an integral part
of EYAHT and is not only a long-time student, but also
serves as the International Board Chairwoman. Throughout
their years living in David’s Village near the Old
City of Jerusalem, they have hosted thousands of students
and guests for Shabbos meals and after-meal gatherings.
Many of the people who spent time in their home were also
fortunate enough to meet Bonnie’s mother, Carolyn
Gordon.
Unfortunately,
on May 19th 2004, the world lost a very special soul when
Bonnie’s
mother passed away. A woman who illuminated all who met
her, Carolyn Gordon was a beautiful role model and inspiration.
Bonnie and Alan
decided there was no better way to honor her life and her
memory than through enabling young Jewish women to learn
about their beautiful heritage through learning at EYAHT & other
Aish women’s learning programs. With this in mind,
they have established the Carolyn Gordon Memorial
Fund.
Donations to the fund will be a benefit to the givers, to
the students who will be able to learn, and to her mother's
soul, which is further elevated with each good deed done on
her behalf.
Carolyn Gordon
was blessed with 88 years of life and love. Carolyn was
a woman who lived life to the fullest, with no concept
of age or restrictions in terms of what was possible. She
proved that it is never too late to change. In her late
70’s she made her kitchen kosher and took upon herself
the observance of many mitzvahs, serving as an inspiration
not only to her family, but to all those who were blessed
to know her.
We want to help
perpetuate the memory of Carolyn Gordon and continue her
influence through the generation of students that will
be able to learn in her merit.
