Our Congregation provides its members with many opportunities for social action. Our programs benefit women’s and teen shelters, foster children and homeless veterans, the homebound, and the hungry. By reaching out to people in need, we not only help to repair the world but also strengthen our Jewish identity and provide an important example of our values for our children.
