Tu B'Shevat


Dear Parents,

     In honor of the upcoming Tu B'Shevat holiday and in conjunction with our Educational Bridge Program, we are going to plant fruit trees from the shivat ha'minim (the seven species- olives, dates, pomegranates, etc. ) in the Shiloh school in Kfar Saba, Israel.  The students there will help us fulfill the mitzvah of planting trees in Israel and we are going to help them fulfill the mitzvah of Birkat HaEelanot ( a special blessing thanking Hashem for the fruits of the trees). 
We are collecting $1 from each student
and encouraging everyone to participate in this endeavor.  

Thank you.
