June/July 2017 Page 15 Our Mission: To support the synagogue through Judaism, Community Service, Friendship and Fundraising.

Sisterhood has a had a busy 2016-2017 year! We started out by organizing the annual Operation Isaiah Campaign that assists the Atlanta Community Food Bank in feeding people in need. In addition, we volunteered at the Cohen Home as well as the Zaban Shelter. We were a community partner for the movie “Brave Miss World” hosted by the Jewish Wom- en’s Fund and the Atlanta Jewish Film Festival.

We hosted a Women’s Wellness luncheon where we learned about women’s sleep health and also raised money for Hadassah University Medical Center.

Our annual Sisterhood Shabbat was a beautiful service and our annual Women’s Seder was educational as well as a fun event.

We coordinated bazaars for both Hanukkah and Purim, and donated money to CDTTY’s fundraiser benefitting Camp Jenny.

We had a lot of fun socializing at a self defense class, trivia night, game night, potluck dinner, Hanukkah party and back to school brunch.

A special thanks to the amazing 2016-2017 board for making all the above possible!
