A Word about "Dues"

Sending Brotherhood dues of $50.00 does a lot more than you think. You know the phrase "in numbers, there is strength," well, that applies here: consider that you spend $50.00 on a meal in a restaurant or you pay one month of cable TV, or the annual fee on your IRA account. But also consider that $50.00 can feed eight geriatric patients a hot chicken dinner or buy four gallons of paint for the interior of the home for the disabled, or buy twelve rolls of wallpaper for three Beth-El Early Child hood Education Center classrooms. We spend your money wisely. We make sure it gets done because we do it ourselves. Help us help others. This is your neighbor talking. Join Brotherhood today.
