Helping Out in Yor TBA Community
TBA serves the needs of our community in part because of the many volunteers who give their time. But we always need more help. There are many ways you can help your TBA community, even if you only have a couple of hours. Here are just a few.
Elected Leadership and Committee Members
Serving TBA as a board member or Management Team Leader is a very rewarding experience and a great way to serve your community. Every year at this time, a Nominating Committee is formed to search for candidates to fill various open board positions. There are also many opportunities to be a member of the many committees that support these leadership positions. Take a moment to look at the various board positions offered at Temple Brith Achim. You will find a list of your current leaders in your newsletter, directory and on our website. If you have a specific interest in any of the positions or the committees that support those positions, please contact the President (tbapresident@brithachim.org) or the Head of Management (tbamanagement@brithachim.org). Together we can make TBA a better place for everyone!
Volunteers Needed For Forteniters Dinner
On a regular basis, TBA will host a dinner for members of the Forteniters Club. The club was formed to provide social support services for mental health patients living on their own in the Norristown area. The club holds a dinner every Thursday in Norristown that is hosted by different organizations. We are the only Jewish organization that participates. Volunteers are needed between 4 and 7 p.m. to help prepare and serve dinner. If you can help, even if just for part of the time, contact Cathy Koffs at 610 265-2209 or cathyk435@comcast.net.
Oneg Hosts Needed
If you would like to sponsor an Oneg, please contact Miriam Schmitt at miriam.schmitt@globalknowledge.com.
Gift Shop Volunteers Needed
If you are interested in helping out at the gift shop, please contact Sharon Weinberg at Sharon.Weinberg@ellucian.com
Office Volunteers Needed
The office is in need of at least 3 volunteers to help out the first week of each month to prepard the congregational flyers for mailing. We can get them done in less than 2 hours with 3 sets of hands! We are also looking for volunteers who are willing to come to the office for a few hours and answer the phones or help with questions when Cindy is away. Sometimes, you can even take things home to work on. If you would like to volunteer, please contact Cindy Poust at cpoust@brithachim.org or call 610-337-2222, x222.
Getting the Word Out!
You know how great TBA events are and about all the great work we do. Now here’s your chance to let others know. The Communications Committee (a strong team with a great cooperative attitude who are always ready to help) needs someone to handle the writing and distribution of press releases. You don’t need to be a PR pro to do this job effectively and well but some marketing/pr experience would be great. To find out more, email Ginny Simon at ginnysimon24@gmail.com.
