Rabbi Chai Posner
We are forever indebted to each member of our village for the bright path he or she has forged toward our future — our teachers, clergy, volunteers, school parents, alumni, and congregation – all of whom share in our inclusive mission and our desire to be a part of something greater than the sum of its parts. Our BT village means something different to each of us, and we all share a sense of pride in knowing that we belong and that we are family.
Beth Tfiloh Honor Roll 2021-2022 1
Looking back on the past year, we recognize with immense gratitude how remarkable our “village” is. You have helped us to weather the storm over the past few years, having faith that together we would return to what we all remember as “normal life.” And together, we reflected on all of our village’s accomplishments and growth throughout the past 100 years. Your continued support has helped us to usher in a new era for BT.
“It takes a village to raise a child.” We — the Beth Tfiloh community — are a village; a community that supports each member and draws strength from each individual working together for the greater good. Being a member of the BT family means we support each other with all of our collective resources.
Rabbi Mitchell Wohlberg
Dr. Zipora Schorr
Todah Rabah,
2 Beth Tfiloh Honor Roll 2021-2022
With nearly 1,000 students enrolled in our Beth Tfiloh Dahan Community School and more than 1,200 Beth Tfiloh Congregation member families, we recognize the powerful impact of our village on our school and shul’s past, present, and future.
About the Annual Campaign
We have seen how our village rises to the occasion in times of greatness and uncertainty. In our most recent years, we have thrived despite global health, security and financial challenges. You, our Beth Tfiloh school and shul community, have rallied in support of our BT family through your investment in BT’s Annual Campaign.
Our Annual Campaign is a Beth Tfiloh community-wide effort to provide the necessary resources that keep our village in motion. We ask each of you to contribute to our Annual Campaign to sustain our facilities, programs, technology, faculty and staff — the foundation of our village.
We thank you for providing us with the means to keep our BT village strong as we look ahead to a bright future together.

BT’s major capital and endowment Centennial Campaign raised more than $25 million to secure and sustain the future for our school and shul communities. As a result, over the next several years our community will experience enhancements that will strengthen our community and take our shul and school to the next level.
As we continue to expand and strengthen our shul community, we doubled the number of young families attending the Young Family Minyan, starting with 20 young families and growing to 40 davening together on a weekly basis. Our next generation continued to grow as we welcomed 10 new young families into our shul community this past year.

“For us, BT represents a unique intersection of the past, present, and future of our family. When I walk through the halls, I reflect on the lessons I learned as a BT student, and the many momentous occasions we have shared here as both young adults and now parents. As we look toward the future, we feel fortunate to watch our children grow into proud, knowledgeable, and observant American Jews here at BT.”

SUSTAINABILITY FUND – Deepening our commitment to community and accessibility
As the greater Jewish community grapples with pressing challenges, including feelings of disconnect to their Judaism and rising levels of antisemitism, the need for vibrant schools and synagogues like Beth Tfiloh is more critical than ever before. Our centennial milestone was an opportunity to mobilize our community to ensure that our beloved Beth Tfiloh continues to be a fixture of Jewish life in the Baltimore community and beyond for generations to come.
BETH TFILOH CONGREGATION
Our synagogue is more than a house of prayer. It is the nexus of our community, connecting the religious, spiritual, social, emotional, and intellectual. With an already robust schedule, we will establish a center for Jewish life, a centralized programming hub with modern space for communal experience in a personalized, meaningful, and inter-connected manner.
CENTENNIAL CAMPAIGN
20 Beth Tfiloh Honor Roll 2021-2022
PROGRAM FUND – Establishing a center for Jewish life to better engage our entire community
INVEST IN OUR LEGACY. INVEST IN OUR FUTURE. “I FOUND A FRUITFUL WORLD BECAUSE MY ANCESTORS PLANTED TREES FOR ME. SO TOO WILL I PLANT FOR MY CHILDREN AND MY CHILDREN’S CHILDREN.” –TALMUD, TA’ANIT 23A
Our congregational funding priorities are focused on: OUR HOME – Improving our synagogue to provide a more warm and welcoming experience
We have embarked on a $25 million capital and endowment campaign in order to secure and sustain Beth Tfiloh for you, your children, and your children’s children. The primary goal of the Centennial Campaign is to address the most pressing needs of our congregation and school.

Calla and Dr. Todd Samuels
Our school is a pipeline for future Jewish leaders. BT provides students with a strong education grounded in Jewish tradition and identity. To ensure our school continues to remain a competitive option for Jewish families, we must invest in the core of BT—our faculty, our students, and our facilities. Doing so will sustain our school’s rigor and programming, enhance our ability to recruit and retain students, and ensure BT remains affordable for all families by removing the need to burden our community with additional tuition costs.
