What is social action?  

Social action is our ability to mobilize on behalf of a cause – hands on volunteering, teaching, mentoring, giving resources of goods or money – to satisfy unmet social and economic needs in the community, to carry out the mission of tikun olam (repairing the world).

The Social Action Committee initiates projects and supports local community projects.
Some of these projects are short term or one-day events; many are ongoing with congregants from BSKI regularly participating. We educate ourselves and others about current social issues and perform mitzvot to benefit the Jewish and St. Louis communities.    

Social action programs currently address community needs in the following areas:
            Hunger
            Interfaith relations
            Environment
            Meal delivery to the home-bound
