Dear Members of Congregation Tifereth Israel,

On behalf of the Butterfly Effect Project and our Butterfly Action Group, we extend our heartfelt thanks to the Congregation and the synagogue’s Tikkun Olam Initiative for the generous donation in support of our work.

One of the core missions of the BEP is to create courageous conversations that empower young people to think critically, lead compassionately, and move through the world with understanding and respect for the histories, cultural identities and lived experiences of others. We believe deeply in teaching our youth the power of community, respectful dialogue, and the importance of coming together across differences.

Thank you for your belief in the power of young people.

—Tijuana Fulford
