What is the Emergency Shelter Partnership (ESP)?
Bet Torah will be hosting 15-20 people who live locally, but cannot afford food and shelter through the winter. From November through March, many congregations in our area take a turn hosting guests. Each night volunteers from the congregations and the community at large cook and serve a hot meal and provide breakfast for the next morning and a carry-out lunch. Learn more about the ESP.
Support for Bet Torah’s shelter week is needed from the whole community. Sign up here to make individually packed dinners (which can be cooked at home) or breakfast/lunch to-go bags. Sign up here to be a check-in volunteer. Please email Michele Posner, community service committee chair, with any questions about the ESP or other Bet Torah community service programs.

Please note that there may be changes in the Bet Torah, Emek, and METNY calendars. Bet Torah’s Youth calendar is always the most current and updated online.

WHAT IS CLUB 45?

Club 45 is Bet Torah’s youngest youth group for 4th and 5th graders. Approximately every other month, tweens are invited to attend fun events with Bet Torah friends in a purely fun and social environment. Past events have included fun at Bet Torah, as well as fencing at Westchester Fencing Academy and bowling, racing, and arcade at Grand Prix.

As the goal of Club 45 is to help our pre-teens deepen and expand their friendships within the Bet Torah community, events are open only to Bet Torah congregants. Tweens do not need to be enrolled in the Kulanu Learning Program.
