Brotherhood
Tree of Life Brotherhood
The Tree of Life Brotherhood is a support organization for the Tree of Life Congregation. This includes servicing the needs of the building and supporting temple programs to include the religious school, youth activities, Jewish education, fundraising, and social action.
Our mission is to foster unity through service for our temple and the community at-large.
Our vision is to facilitate a voluntary body of men to participate in acts of service with the intent of promoting brotherhood and sharing in the commitment towards the success of the Temple.
Activities include:
- Providing breakfast for students and staff on the first day of Religious School
- Providing ushers and greeters for the High Holidays
- Building a sukkah for the holiday of Sukkot
- Cooking our famous latkes for the Hanukkah party
- Providing assistance for the Temple’s major fundraiser, the Big Nosh
- Sponsoring a membership barbeque
- Sponsoring outings to Fireflies baseball games
- Leading Shabbat services
- Welcoming speakers who enlighten and inform on a variety of pertinent topics
- Sponsoring a guest rabbi-in-residence breakfast
- Giving the gift of Kiddush cups to bar and bat mitzvah children
We encourage participation at all our activities, including meetings and the events themselves. Please don’t hesitate to contact us to join in!
Annual Dues
We request a minimum of $18 per year dues to provide funds to successfully accomplish our goals. There are some members who have chosen to increase their financial commitment for which we are grateful. Dues may be sent to the Temple care of the Brotherhood or they can be paid online with a credit card.
