Give Miami Day is a chance to witness the overwhelming generosity of our community and an opportunity for every person to play a role in shaping a Greater Miami that we are proud to call home.

Sweet Honey for ORT America

As we prepare for the High Holy Days we are reminded how important it is to reach out to our family, friends and business relationships with wishes for a sweet and healthy year ahead. Our honey fundraiser provides an opportunity to send jars of delicious honey with a personal greeting to those who are important in our lives. By purchasing sweet honey you are benefitting the Center for Jewish Life at Beth David. The annual Honey From The Heart Fundraiser is a joint program of the Gordon School Parents Association and Beth David Women’s League.
