“I’ve been blessed to celebrate my childrens’ B’not Mitzvah at South Campus/Temple Aliyah, which brought our entire family together from across the United States.”
“I will always am grateful for the ECC at South Campus, which provided such a strong Jewish foundation for my children.”
A Blessing for the Future of HAMAKOM
