Chesed is Hebrew for lovingkindness. The Beth Shalom Chesed Committee performs activities to recognize and help congregants and their families during a time of need. Chesed initiatives include:

• Delivering a gift or personal visit on selected Jewish holidays to congregants who are nursing home residents or homebound.
• Providing a visit, card or phone call to congregants who have recently lost a loved one.
• Recognizing a newborn or congregant by planting a tree in Israel in their honor.
• Visiting congregants when hospitalized and following up with cards or phone calls following their discharge.
