Supporting the Community of Los Angeles

How can we help?

  • We are partnering with a group of local organizations to benefit the Good+ Foundation, providing essential items to impacted families.  We are collecting the following NEW AND UNUSED items through Tuesday, January 21st. Please drop the items in the bins in the temple vestibule:
    • ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Toiletries: ​​​​​​​Band-Aids, hand sanitizer, men’s/women’s deodorant, sanitary napkins/tampons, sunscreen, toothpaste, travel size shampoo
    • ​​​​​​​Baby Essentials: Baby blankets, baby shampoo, body wash, diaper cream, diapers (specifically sizes 5 & 6), wipes
  • ​​​​​​​We are continuing our collection of Target, Visa, or Amex gift cards to be distributed to families in need. The gift cards can be of any amount as long as they are clearly labeled with the value.
    • ​​​​​​​Please drop these in the box in the front circle at TBJ, with an extended deadline of Tuesday, January 21st, and we will send them as one package to synagogues in Los Angeles for distribution.

​​​​​​​If you are unable to physically drop a gift card off, you can send a gift card via email to belong@tbj.org.

Do you have family in LA in need?
Your clergy are here for you and want to help. If you have loved ones who are directly impacted and in need of assistance, please fill out this form and we will follow up with you in short order.

Our tradition teaches that it is our collective responsibility to step up in these crucial moments; healing the pain that exists in our world by lifting, strengthening, and lending support to our neighbors who need it most.
