VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Please let us know if you may have some time to help in the ECC classrooms or can join us for specific events to help our youngest temple members. We have had a few fun events already supported by Sisterhood and we are looking forward to more!

Please let us know when you can help!

OR

Are you looking for a project to work on or can help with our special events like our Holiday Boutique? Do you have a special talent? Do you bake special goodies?

Have you heard a speaker that would be interesting to others in Sisterhood?

OR

Are you tech savvy and want to help with our communications or monthly newsletter? Do you have experience in designing flyers or helping with web pages?

Please let Sisterhood know what interests you or if you have a few hours to volunteer. We have many projects and programs that may need your unique touch! We can't wait to meet you and look forward to working with you!

Thank you for supporting BJBE Sisterhood!

What's your game? Mah Jongg or Canasta. Come in to BJBE on Mondays at 1:00pm and join us at our tables! Contact Sharon Krivitzky for more information.

Thinking about going to services on Friday night? Come in and sit with

your sisters! We can meet outside of the Judaica shop and then sit together.

If you arrive a bit after services start, don't worry-there will be room for you.

No one should ever feel alone at BJBE.
