To All Congregants - With your help our Temple Israel Religious School earned over $500 last year through the 'Together In Education' program sponsored by Harris Teeter. Our goal this year is to double that number!  To participate all you need to do is link your 'VIC' card to our school ID: 4647. Linking your VIC card is easy.
