Pink Walk at the Beth El Early Learning Center
2024-10-30 | Temple Beth El -Beck Family Campus, 9800 Yamato Rd, Boca Raton, FL, 33434, United States
Breast cancer has deeply affected many lives within the Jewish community. In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the students of Beth El Early Learning Center will proudly take part in our annual “Pink Walk” to raise both awareness and funds in the fight against this devastating disease. Through this meaningful event, our students will also explore the mitzvot of G’milut Chasadim (acts of loving kindness) and Bikkur Cholim (caring for and visiting the sick), instilling values of compassion and support for those in need.
In 2024, we’re looking to beat last year’s goal and raise $1,750.00 for Susan G. Komen, the world’s leading breast cancer organization. Together, with the spirit of G’milut Chasadim and Bikkur Cholim, we are confident that we can come together as a community to make this year’s Pink Walk a success! Follow this link, then click the “Donate Now” button on the top right to contribute to this worthy cause and show your children how their efforts can help make a difference in the world.

Souls to the Polls
2024-10-27 13:30 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | Ebenezer Baptist Church, 200 Ruby Street, Boca Raton, FL, United States
In partnership with DISC of Pearl City, an interracial social change organization, the Jewish Community Relations Council of South Palm Beach County, and the churches in Pearl City, Temple Beth El is welcoming all to participate in Souls to the Polls as the Black and Jewish communities stand shoulder to shoulder to exercise our fundamental right to vote.
Our tradition teaches that “A leader should not be appointed until the community is consulted” (Talmud Brachot 55a). Expressing our desires through voting is the most fundamental American right, and is especially important for minority groups.
On Sunday, October 27 at 1:30pm we will gather in Pearl City at Ebenezer Baptist Church for an Early Voting Rally at 1:30 pm. We will hear from Rabbi Greg Weisman, the Reverend Ronald L. Brown and community leaders including the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Wendy Sartory Link. At 2:00 pm, as a group, we will walk to an Early Voting Site and stand together in fellowship and community to take our turn to cast our ballot.
In addition to registering to participate, we are looking for volunteers willing to drive folks between the nearby polling site and Pearl City.

Rosh Chodesh, literally translated as, “the new month,” has long been considered a holiday gifted to women – when we take time to focus on our own personal growth.
Come to connect with other women, to grow and reflect on the month that has passed, breathe, and give yourself the gift of time to focus your intentions for the month ahead.
This year, through text study, speakers and inspiring conversations, we will focus on what it means to connect with your intuition, and how to listen and learn from the “still quiet voice” within.
All women are welcome and refreshments will be served.
