Care Committee
Care Committee
The Care Committee aims to provide spiritual, social, emotional, and material support to members of our synagogue and community through the use of volunteers and local resources. This care might take the form of bringing meals to a neighbor post-surgery, giving a ride to an elderly congregant or visiting a community member who struggles with loneliness. Requests for help are addressed when a person in need sends an email to care@bethjacobvt.org.
