“The world rests on three things: study, worship, and acts of loving kindness.”  ~ Pirke Avot

Each of these three things are part of preparing to become a B’nai Mitzvah at Temple Sholom. To fulfill the G’milut Chasadim requirement of B’nai Mitzvah study, students choose a Mitzvah Project and learn what it means to be part of a community by finding ways to contribute. 

Every student finds the right program that captures their passion and compassion for certain causes. We ask them to choose an issue that is meaningful, and set a specific and achievable goal to be reached (e.g., a number of hours to volunteer, an amount to be raised, etc.).

Our flagship programs of Monday Meal & Feed the Hungry are amazing ways to give back. We are deeply proud of both these opportunities for our students and families.
