Bet Sefer Fundraising and Tikun Olam

Each year, Bet Sefer students embark on a fundraising project to raise money and awareness for several local nonprofits. Currently, the students raise money through the popular Mountain Chai Chanukah Gelt fundraiser. The students work with world famous chocolatier Oscar Ortega to make and sell fabulous hand-crafted chocolate coins dusted in gold. The entire project is managed by the students, including packaging the coins, marketing, and selling. Since 2015, the students have sold thousands of dollars in gelt and the proceeds were divided among nonprofist of their choice and the Bet Sefer School Fund. The students learn valuable lessons in Tikun Olam (Hebrew for “repairing the world”) and teamwork.

Chanukah Awareness 

To coincide with the Chanukah Gelt Fundraiser kickoff, Bet Sefer students invite the Jackson Hole community to join them in an evening of Chanukah food (yes, latkes!), song and games. Check the calendar for this year’s Chanukah Awareness event and come down for some yummy latkes and chocolate gelt. All are welcome.

Bet Sefer Shabbat

In the spring, after the last week of Bet Sefer, students will lead JHJC Shabbat services in song and d’var Torah. Proud parents and Bet Sefer supporters attend this fun and inspiring Shabbat which showcases a year’s worth of Jewish learning by our children. Don’t miss it! Check the May calendar for details.
