Sign Up to Volunteer at Gan Tikvah 2023 Our Garden of Hope: May 7 through Sept 24. Once again in 2023 the BTC Social Action Committee will be planting Gan Tikvah, a vegetable garden to provide fresh produce to WINGS, an organization that provides housing, integrated services, education and advocacy to end domestic violence. This is a great way to personally help others who would not otherwise have fresh produce. Please use the Sign Up Genius to pick a date and time to help. We need anyone interested in helping the Gan Tivkah grow - No experience needed! We will teach you. This is a wonderful family activity, B’Mitzvah project and a good way to get to know our Beth Tikvah community.
