A MESSAGE FROM ANITA PERLMAN, z”l To you just entering the B’nai B’rith Girls () we extend a warm welcome. You are now a member of the largest organization of young Jewish women in the world. The B’nai B’rith Girls has given many thousands the wonderful opportunity of developing leadership among girls and young women. At the same time you are enabled to relate to the young men of the Aleph Zadik Aleph () and work together with them towards a better society and a stronger Jewish community under the banner of . The unique B’nai B’rith Girls way of life helps you find and express your Jewish identity, while expanding your circle of friends. There is no one path to Jewish commitment.  offers you the chance to acquire knowledge and to make choices. Your first choice was your decision to become a part of the B’nai B’rith Girls. You now have choices of activities and also the choice of how much of yourself you will invest in this great cause. The more of yourself that you will give to , the more you will receive. Shalom, Anita M. Perlman 2
