2023 ONLINE Gala Journal

The rally brought together over 30 organizations from across the whole of the Bronx to support bold climate legislation that relies on Bronx-based community organizations to shape solutions that are right for the Bronx. Rally co-sponsors attendees include community organizations,  faith groups, youth, nurses, educators and business people from across the Bronx.

"Attendees rallied in support of the Climate and Community Investment Act (CCIA), which would have a major impact on the Bronx because of the CCIA’s commitment that one-third of funds raised will go to community-based organizations in frontline communities, like the Bronx, which have suffered the worst of environmental and climate pollution and are in greatest need of measure to build resilience to the impact of climate change."

Tehillah was well represented, with 6 attendees out of the roughly 150 people who came to the rally: Danny Guenzburger, Madeline Ritter, Susan Goldman, Stephen Ditmore, Lynda Paul, and Howie Waldman. Howie not only attended but brought 3 of his students. Wendy Seligson (who attends Tehillah High Holiday services) had a leadership role in organizing the rally.

On February 13, 2021 it was our honor to celebrate and acknowledge
Sariel Beckenstein and Jerry Fishman at our annual Gala.

including this VIRTUAL JOURNAL for our Gala.
