A community committed to making the world a better place. PTBE will be known for being a caring community through generosity and social action.
PTBE and its members will be highly regarded for their work in making the world a better place. We will be deeply engaged with the broader community. Members and non-members, Jews and non-Jews will come to learn about the world, share ideas, and experience family life together.
A place where participation is valued and where leadership can be developed. We will be a community where many people will volunteer their time and give of themselves financially because their contributions are valued. People will see the results of their generosity and work and take pride in our collective accomplishments. We will honor the contributions of our members by knowing that our Jewish traditions are sustained. We will be a community where our members can offer leadership in a variety of ways, and where the development of future leaders is ongoing.
