The Temple Beth Torah Brotherhood announced that it has selected the Village of Wellington Holiday Food Drive, the Palm Beach County Homeless Coalition, and the Wellington Community High School Student Government Association’s annual Rosenwald Toy Drive, for its annual charitable donations. The money was primarily raised from past brotherhood golf benefits.
For more than a decade, the Temple Beth Torah Brotherhood has consistently supported local charitable and governmental agencies, including funding scholarship and educational programs at Wellington’s Temple Beth Torah through its fundraising endeavors.
“Our synagogue community takes great pride in all of the Brotherhood’s efforts to help make our world a better place,” said Temple Beth Torah Rabbi Andrew L. Rosenkranz. “They understand the commandment in Judaism to treat everyone with kindness and compassion.”
On Sunday, May 1, the Brotherhood will hold its annual golf benefit at The Wanderers Club in Wellington. Each year, the golf event attracts more than 120 golfers and corporate sponsors. More information, along with the opportunity to register for the event, will be posted soon on the Brotherhood website, http://www.tbtbrotherhood.com/.
Temple Beth Torah is a Reform synagogue whose members reside throughout Wellington and beyond. Affiliated with the Union for Reform Judaism, Temple Beth Torah was founded in 1978 and serves more than 375 member families. It hosts a vibrant and inclusive religious school and one of the county’s most respected early learning centers. The Temple Beth Torah Brotherhood is a service arm of the congregation, and membership is open to every male member of the temple. The organization raises money through a number of projects, including the aforementioned annual golf tournament, and returns a portion of their annual fundraising back to the community.
