CABI KITCHEN
Whether it’s a handmade challah, a Wednesday night dinner during JCS, or holiday based foods, the CABI kitchen has many creations throughout the year that will keep your tastebuds happy! On the second Friday of most months we have a catered Shabbat dinner made by Maria’s Catering.
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH ITEMS AT CABI
Prohibiting access to potentially lifesaving medical procedures for women is contrary to the Jewish values of protecting life (pikuach nefesh) and respecting human dignity (kayod ha’briyot). As such, our Reproductive Justice Team has recently partnered with Idaho Abortion Rights to provide congregants with access to reproductive health items.
Reproductive health boxes - which include pregnancy tests, condoms, and emergency contraceptives - will be placed in both the women’s and men’s bathrooms in the social hall, as well as in the all-gender bathroom in the basement of the sanctuary. Items are placed in these locations to provide privacy to congregants in need and will be positioned on high shelves (out of reach of little hands). During religious school sessions, the boxes will only be available in the sanctuary bathroom.
For more information about reproductive health options in Idaho, please visit: https://idahoabortionrights.com/.
For more information about Social Justice opportunities at CABI, please email melissa@cabi-boise.org. We are looking to build both our volunteer base as well as our Social Justice outreach here in Boise and would love your help. Together, we will continue our work to create a more equitable Boise for all.
furnishing hope
The Furnishing Hope program helps families who are transitioning from temporary housing at Interfaith Sanctuary to permanent homes by providing gently-used or new furniture and other household essentials. The goal is to make the house feel like a true home. Each month, a different Boise Faith Group organization "sponsors" a family (CABI will sponsor families during the months of May and November.)
If you have new or *gently used* household items such as those contained in this list, please contact Dana Zuckerman. Drop off times will be offered twice a month: on the second Thursday and last Sunday, from 2 - 4 pm. If you would like to drop by during that time, please contact Dana in advance. The storage unit is located in the Public Storage facility at 2902 S. Beverly Street in Boise.
SIMCHA TREE
Simcha!
How many times have you wanted to do something nice for a very special person but couldn't come up with the right idea? What better way to recognize someone than a Simcha Leaf for our Simcha Tree! You could publicly praise, laud, glorify, or just plain acknowledge a meritorious moment in their lives while contributing to the living legacy of our synagogue's survival! Wow! All in one small leaf for mankind!
Please contact Roy Ledesma HERE, if you would like to order a Simcha Leaf.
