Kadima is a Hebrew word that means “forward.” Kadima is a youth group that is here to help the 7th and 8th graders move forward into their roles as responsible members of the Jewish Community after their b’nai mitzvah.  Kadima programs consist of social-action projects, holiday celebrations, cultural activities, games, sports, arts and crafts, and conventions.  They take place once or twice a month, sometimes at Beth Jacob and other times at various other locations.  

RSVP

Some programs like a Lounge Night do not require an RSVP.  For other programs it is important to let us know that your child will be coming.  The reasons for this range from small (buying enough food) to not-so-small (enough room on the bus, ensuring adequate staff for a program).  We ask for your help and co-operation to insure that you or your child RSVP when necessary.

Scholarship

We realize that sending a child to USY/Kadima events (especially regional events) are not cheap.  Therefore, we do as much as we can to make scholarships available.  Scholarships are given based on need and participation, and all scholarship information is strictly confidential.  Scholarship forms are available at Beth Jacob, by contacting the Youth Director, or by clicking here.
