Please accept, once again, my profound thanks to those of you who were so moved and inspired by our inaugural Eight Nights of Giving program, that it motivated you to make a special Chanukah contribution to Beth Am.
Whether you gave in recognition of one or more or all of the 8 nights, please know that your kindness and thoughtfulness are much appreciated!
Thank you for helping to dispel the darkness and for distributing the light in such a meaningful way!
In friendship, Robert

Camp Scholarships
Summer is closer than you think! It’s the time of year when we begin the process of distributing scholarship funds from the Julia Nicole Marder Camp Fund to our families who need help sending their kids (Grades K-12) to Jewish day/overnight camps.
If you would like funding assistance for summer of 2024, please fill out this online form by December 31. We will have scholarship decisions by mid-February.
Thank you for making camp happen for you child—it’s one of the highest impact Jewish learning experiences kids can have.
During the month of January, we will be collecting new and gently used shoes for distribution to homeless people in Philadelphia. Please make sure the shoes are in good condition and appropriate for outside, cold weather use. Please place each pair in a bag labeled with size and gender.
