VBI Sisterhood 2018


VBI Sisterhood is small - but we do great things!  Read on to find out how you can help those in our Community through the Sisterhood
 
Show You Care - Send a Card

Are you aware that you can send tribute cards to congregants (and others) through VBI Sisterhood?   
Our very own Pauline Reich has been sending these cards for over 25 years - and she'd like to do so on your behalf as well.  The cost is only $3.00, though many congregants give more as a donation to the synagogue*.  
These cards are the perfect way to congratulate, send well wishes, or offer condolences.  A personalized message is always added, and if you aren't sure what to say, Pauline is happy to add a kind note on your behalf.   Contact Pauline by email to make your request!    
*Contributions made from the sale of these cards is used to pay for Kiddush Luncheons, post Shabbat services, challah, and other various needs for preparing meals and events. 


Help Local Veterans
VBI Sisterhood, in connection with volunteers at the VA Hospital, maintains an on-going collection of goods for our local Veterans.  Special thanks to Pauline Reich who has been participating in this effort for many years and brings this need to our attention.
Many things needed are FREE for you to contribute:
  • Pads of paper
  • Pens/pencils
  • 2018 Calendars
  • Cards: Birthday, Get Well, Christmas, etc. (some come free by mail)
  • Gift wrap
  • Toiletries  (Sample sizes are great! - Hotel, Dentist, etc.)
  • Soft cover books
  • Current magazines (this year)
  • Music CD's
  • Clothes that are clean and wearable (t-shirts, shirts, pants, jackets, etc.)
 So many of these items we take for granted, and perhaps even throw away.  Please consider collecting and donating them through the Temple Sisterhood.  Look for a collection box in the Temple office.
