1000TH TCM MEMBER BRINGS CASH BONUS TO STANMORE

This week saw the 1000th member join the innovative Tribe Community Membership (TCM), the scheme launched 4 years ago for singles aged 21-30. In celebration of this achievement Tribe has offered Katie Passer, the 1000th member to sign up, a free place on its Poland trip. It will also be making a £500 donation to the youth and young people’s activities at the shul which Katie is joining, Stanmore & Canons Park United Synagogue.

Hearing the news that she is the 1000th TCM member, Katie Passer said: “I am thrilled that not only am I going to benefit from my TCM membership, but so is my community. Tribe activities in Stanmore have gone from strength to strength – offering so much to young people in the community. I hope this money will help boost them even more.”

Commenting Rabbi Andrew Shaw said: “In just four years we have seen 1000 young people join our shuls as TCM members. Our synagogues are benefitting from the influx of younger members - not only joining but getting involved.”
