A ChallahDay Note of Gratitude

Over the past two weeks, we marked a year of living through the pandemic, coming together from afar to share a collective challah hug. It was heart-warming (and by all counts, delicious!)

Thank you to all those who baked, whether you contributed one loaf orwil one hundred, whether you consider yourself an expert baker or had never before attempted challah but stepped out of your comfort zone to bake and braid for the first time.

Thank you to the many drivers who took time out of their days to ensure every member of our community – all 903 households – received challah. Drivers delivered to every far-flung corner of the greater Charlotte area (More than 25 zip codes! In 3 counties! Spanning two states!)

This endeavor truly took our entire TBE village, and we are so grateful for your contribution, and for all of the ways in which each of you have helped bring our core values of acting, caring, playing and praying, learning, and being accountable to one another over this past year.
