B’nai Torah Congregation Partners with Hawaii Department of Education to Support Students Displaced by Fires

Boca Raton, FL – Following the devastating fires in Hawaii, B’nai Torah Congregation in Boca Raton partnered with the Hawaii Department of Education to support the 3,000 students who were displaced.

B’nai Torah Congregation’s Ron & Meryl Gallatin TLC Program, which is known for its continuous work to help those in need, has already supported students and teachers with school supplies, recreation items, water bottles, and backpacks.

If you would like to help, please see the Amazon Wish List created by the Maui Preparatory School, which is taking in displaced students, to ensure that every child has the essentials to continue their education without interruption.

“The Meryl and Ron Gallatin Tzedakah, Learning, and Chesed (TLC) Program is committed to not only recognizing the needs of others but also takes pride in unifying the community in order to respond in a timely and effective manner. This way the unimaginable overwhelming problem is brought to a manageable level, and can allow anyone who wants to help the opportunity to make a difference,” said Summer Faerman, Director of TLC Program, B’nai Torah Congregation
