SISTERHOOD Jackie Zelkowitz
Sisterhood had quite a busy April, and we are moving full force into May planning our successful year back in the synagogue.
On Sunday, April 3rd, Sisterhood joined CBS Social Action and Religious School for Mitzvah Day. We worked on projects with the Religious School students and collected a variety of products that Border Tails Rescue in Northbrook regularly uses. Thank you to Jodi Joffe and Teri Robins for arranging our collection and drop off. Thank you to the many Sisterhood members who came to help and a big thank you to Suzy Hakimian, Social Action VP and Robyn Rosengard, School VP for allowing Sisterhood to join in this wonderful event. It was so nice that we could all come together for a good cause. Thank you to Michael Balter for capturing this moment for all of us with his amazing pictures. On Monday, April 4th, Sisterhood took a virtual tour through the Holocaust Museum: Rise Up: Stonewall and the LGBTQ Rights Movement. The tour was fascinating and felt like we were right there walking through the exhibit. Thank you to Debbie Hamilton for arranging this wonderful evening online. I hope that you were able to get to the synagogue for services during the two weekends of Pesach and enjoy the wonderful kiddushim that were put together. It is nice to see that things are slowly starting to return to normal. I cannot thank Robin Bright enough for all of her time and effort in organizing and planning the different recipes for Pesach. It took a great deal of time to prepare all of this so that we could bake. It was so wonderful to come together to bake, just like we did pre-pandemic! Thank you to everyone that came out to help. It could not have been done without all of you. Please join us at our Culminating, Installation, and Valued Volunteer Dinner on Tuesday, May 17th. Our entertainment for the evening will be John Boda, The Music Man, who will feature the music of My Fair Lady. Our 2022 Valued Volunteer is Maria Catezone. Maria’s work has been above and beyond the call of duty, and she has always supported Sisterhood. We are proud to recognize, publicly thank and honor Maria for all that she has done for Sisterhood. I hope to see all of you at our Culminating Dinner.
