2025 BENEFICIARIES
Congregation Beth Israel 12th Annual Casino Night Fundraiser
Congregation Beth Israel (CBI) was established in 1998. CBI is a welcoming Reform Jewish community that serves individuals and families in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area. We are a home for spiritual awareness, education, and growth. Even after the tragic events of January 15, 2022, CBI believes in interfaith inclusion and transforming Jewish isolation through engagement, participation, and volunteerism. Embracing the Jewish traditions of L’Dor V’Dor (linking generation to generation) and Tikkun Olam (repair the world) allows CBI to nurture meaningful relationships and a profound sense of belonging. Your support tonight will enable CBI to continue to offer life changing programs as well as provide for significant infrastructure improvements for our congregation.
GRACE is a faith-based, non-profit relief agency that provides food, clothing, and other emergency assistance to people who are in need in Grapevine, Colleyville, Southlake or other Northeast Tarrant County communities. Extended resources through transitional housing and case management are directed toward developing self-sufficiency. Compassion and assistance are offered as a response to God's grace in partnership local churches, municipalities, businesses, civic organizations, and individuals.
As an integral service arm of the Jewish Federation of Fort Worth and Tarrant County, Jewish Family Services (JFS) offers individual and family counseling as well as support groups to the entire community. JFS also helps coordinate a Senior Adult Lunch Program where approximately 150 hot meals are served each week. JFS also helps members of our community who, from time to time, may need some help to fulfill their basic needs, such as food and shelter. Locally, JFS opened an office to offer services in Colleyville for members of CBI and the community as a whole regardless of religion or ethnicity. Your support tonight will help further advance these important efforts
