Our strength as a congregation comes from the hundreds of individuals who give their time and talent to help our community. We are fortunate to have many committed volunteers, but there is so much more that we could accomplish. Even giving just a few hours of your time can have a huge impact. It is also a great way to meet fellow congregants.
Whatever your interest, there are many volunteer opportunities at CBI from specific short term projects to on-going committees.

The staff and board of trustees of Congregation Beth Israel are always looking for additional assistance in performing the every day and special activities at CBI. In this section, we will highlight an opportunity that is important to us.
For the first volunteer opportunity of the new website, we are highlighting opportunities surrounding the High Holy Days. Between bakers, ushers, help with the children's services, reception & new family service, there are a multitude of volunteer jobs to be done. Peruse through the forms of the High Holy Day packet and let us know how you would like to help.
Going to be out of town for the holidays this year, never fear, we have opportunities for everyone. Do you like to bake? Bake ahead of time for the children's reception or Break the Fast and we'll freeze the goodies. (And we can use bakers all year round to help with items for the oneg). Don't know your way around a kitchen? Not a problem, we have plenty of opportunities to help with specific events throughout the year or even with this website.
Contact Jennifer Smith with your talent, and we'll find a job for you.
