Show your dedication this Giving Tuesday
Today is Giving Tuesday and the fact that it falls between the lighting of the 2nd and 3rd Hanukkah candle is a good thing. In the spirit of Hanukkah, we have an opportunity to celebrate our favorite nonprofits, while also showing our dedication to the work they do.

The power and importance of being part of a team
We sometimes forget that just because we don't wear a team uniform, we can still be a part of a team. Working towards similar goals, our teammates and us have a unique responsibility to one another and we complement each other's abilities. It is through that teamwork and understanding of our roles that we are able to accomplish so much.

Providing our community's synagogue presidents support
Although I never did become a rabbi as I had always hoped, synagogue life has always been an important part of my Judaism. It is why I feel so proud that the Jewish Federation establish and still coordinates the Synagogue Presidents' Council. This group of current synagogue presidents meets quarterly and provides them the opportunity to come together and discuss issues each are facing in their respective organizations.

Nonprofits need to take a page from Social Media
While a lot has been made recently about the ills of social media, nonprofits need to take a page from sites like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and others. What social media is really good about is allowing their users to highlight and share things going on in their lives. It is in this vain that organizations like the Jewish Federation need to remember in order to continue to remind the community of what we do and highlight the impact we make on community members lives. If we don't, people can and will question the purpose of the organization.
