Tribute

Tribute is a way of supporting and celebrating members as they go through life events.

 Here's how it works. Twice a month, as a Sisterhood member, we let you know about events (births, bar and bat mitzvahs, serious illness, confirmations, graduations, etc.) among BTC members.

If you'd like to send a Tribute Card to someone on the list, let us know and we'll write the card and send it for you. The cost is $2.50 per card.  Check out the new card!

This year you can enter your contact information and interests online by visiting Beth Tikvah Sisterhood Member contact info and Volunteer interests 2012 - 2013 or complete the form and send to Beth Tikvah.

We hope that you will get the most from your membership by volunteering to help with activities and events that are of interest to you and help further the mission of Sisterhood.

Along the way, we hope that you make new friends, deepened relationships with old friends, and have fun together. That's really the secret of volunteering. You get back much more than you give. You get to make a difference. You get to be a part of something bigger than yourself.

Thanks again for joining us.
