Men's Club
B'nai Israel Congregation
Men's Club
The B'nai Israel Men's Club was formed in 2003. Our mission is to foster a sense of brotherhood and friendship for male members of the Congregation and to support the Congregation in religious, cultural, and social activities as well as fundraising events. Additionally, we look outside our internal community for volunteering opportunities that benefit those less fortunate.
OFFICERS 2022-2023
President: Phil Sassoon
Vice President: Lloyd Zeldin
Programming: Barry Weiss
Treasurer: Shai Abisch
Board Liaison: Harold Eicheholz
Our annual activities include publishing the Yizkor Book of Remembrance, hosting the Labor Day Weekend BBQ Cookout, putting up the Congregation's community Sukkah and hosting a Friday Night Dinner in the Sukkah. We also plan an in-house Super Bowl Party.
We encourage new members to get involved, meet the men of Bnai Israel and be part of our strong community. The Men’s Club members usually meet quarterly for a Sunday breakfast/meeting and periodically bring in guest speakers to enlighten us on topics of mutual interest.

Men's Club News and Events
B'nai Israel Men's Club Past August Breakfast
We had our kickoff breakfast/meeting under new leadership on August 21st with a very successful turnout of 19 members. We discussed projected calendar events and activities that we want to continue with and new ones we would like to implement. A motion was raised to purchase wooden wall mounted tallis racks which was passed unanimously as well take into account the review of existing tallit which may require cleaning or possible replacement. We discussed the need to fortify the existing sukkah structure this year and consider replacing it all together once we find donors interested in sponsoring the effort. We are looking to having guest speakers at future breakfasts. We may also schedule periodic dinners at local Wilmington restaurants or sports events to further enhance our social interaction. We will join forces with Sisterhood to sponsor various activities such as a Game Night in early November and look into volunteer opportunities.
If you have a desire for an activity or want to look into membership with us, please reach out to me, Phil Sassoon at philipisassoon@gmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you,
