Support for Israel

Global Initiatives

Temple Sholom stands firmly behind Israel and encourages everyone to show their support however they can. There are many ways to show your support. The simplest is to wear a blue ribbon and you can find them in the Temple lobby. You can also support Israel by donating to many worth groups or by actively volunteering.
