Beth El Cares
Who occupy themselves with the needs of the community is as though they occupy themselves with Torah – Talmud Yerushalmi, Berakhot
Beth El Cares focuses on chesed and tzedakah by helping the poor and unfortunate through mitzvot, both in our synagogue and the greater Stamford community. We welcome volunteers! This is the work we are currently engaged in:
