Bais Abraham congregation members are getting their hands dirty - literally -as they kick off "Educating from the Earth," a year of learning about the Jewish relationship with the earth -and how it relates to Torah. The program also teaches Jews about how food grows - through communal organic gardening, supplemented with creative Torah study. This innovative program is funded by a Jewish Federation Family Education Crown Grant.

Twenty-two local B'nai Tzedek teens made their FIRST allocation to a Jewish organization that they chose individually! Mary Ann Srenco from the Kranzberg Family Foundation that provides matching dollars to the teens accounts attended the event and spoke to the teens on the importance of giving. Also speaking to this special group of teens was Sherri Frank Weintrop, VP of Planning and Allocations for the Jewish Federation and Rabbi Brigitte Rosenberg from United Hebrew Congregation! The evening ended with some amazing magic by local magician Brent Loewenstein and a fabulous dessert reception!
