Developing CBI Bringing Out the Best in All of Us by Jenat Levison Feldman Development Director Congregation Beth Israel’s annual Taste of Temple (TOT) truly brings out the best in all of us. This event, now in its sixth year, serves as a wonderful friendraiser and fun(d) raiser for our community. From the beginning, the focus of TOT has been on supporting our local economy while asking those local businesses to support us in turn. It’s definitely a winning combination!
