Reverse Tashlich: A Beach Clean-up with a Purpose

For thousands of years, in a ritual called Tashlich, Jews around the world have symbolically cast their sins into a body of water at the High Holy Days. For over 60 years, humans have been throwing their sins, trash and debris into bodies of water as well. Now, the Jewish community is taking those sins out of the water with this clean-up, turning reflection into responsibility – transforming repentance into tangible healing for the planet.

Join Temple Beth El, Tikkun HaYam, and Jewish communities around the world for a meaningful gathering in Deerfield Beach as we observe a Reverse Tashlich – an opportunity to symbolically and literally cleanse our environment. We’ll begin with a brief Tashlich service, followed by a beach clean-up to express our commitment to Tikkun Olam (repairing the world) and caring for our marine ecosystem.

Participants should bring a towel, sunscreen and water. Dress appropriately for a beach clean-up. Metered parking is available across the street.
