For the second year, TBE congregants participated in the huge holiday shoebox gift giveaway held by the Nehemiah Center for Urban Leadership and FOSTER of Dane County. We filled 105 shoeboxes with gift items for children, teens, or adults who might otherwise not receive any gifts during the holidays. Members donated all kinds of toys, treats, gloves, socks, toiletries, and more. Thanks to Catherine Copp and Betsy Abramson for making this project happen.

The Social Action Committee is honored to head up three donation drives in the fall: the High Holy Day Food Drive, the Goodman Thanksgiving Basket Drive, and the Holiday Shoebox Drive. Thanks to you, all of these efforts had a great year. TBE members set a new record for donations to this year’s High Holy Day Food Drive. Our Religious School children and families more than doubled the number of items collected for the Goodman Community Center Thanksgiving Basket Drive. A huge thank you to everyone who donated this fall—we are proud to be members of such a caring community!
