Many of us have old or unused t’fillin in closets, synagogue bins, or inherited boxes that no longer get used. Meanwhile, Kulanu supports isolated, emerging, and returning Jewish communities around the world—communities building Jewish life with limited access to ritual items.

Our mitzvah mission: collect and donate t’fillin from our communities—any size, any condition—and send them to Kulanu for distribution to partner communities.

What to donate:

  • T’fillin (shel yad + shel rosh) — complete sets preferred, but partials still welcome
  • Cases/bags (if you have them)
  • Straps (retzuot)

One simple request:

If a set’s kashrut is questionable, just label it clearly as “questionable.” That’s it.

Where to send donations: 

Inquire with Rabbi Noam Raucher - NRaucher@fjmc.org

Join Women’s Network in Supporting College Students with Dignity. Food insecurity is an often-unseen reality for many college students today, including Jewish students in our own community. The increasing costs of food combined with limited part time jobs leaves too many students making impossible choices about how to stretch already-tight budgets.

Temple Beth Tzedek Women’s Network, in partnership with Hillel of Buffalo, is proud to sponsor a gift card drive to support students experiencing food insecurity on all Buffalo area college campuses. These gift cards will be distributed directly and discreetly by Hillel staff to students in need, ensuring both immediate relief and personal dignity. Gift cards provide flexibility and respect: students can purchase groceries or essentials that meet their specific needs, without stigma or embarrassment. What may feel like a modest contribution can make a profound difference for a student navigating academic pressure alongside financial stress.

We invite you to participate by donating grocery or general-use gift cards (such as Wegmans, Tops, Aldi, etc…). Donations may be dropped off at Temple Beth Tzedek and will be delivered to Hillel for distribution. Together, through the leadership of the Women’s Network, we can help nourish students’ bodies, lift their spirits, and remind them that their community stands with them.
