This is one of the Six Folds of the B'nai Brith Girls. In accordance with Jewish tradition, BBG emphasizes the value of tikun olam(repairing the world). Community service programming can be of a direct or indirect nature. Direct community service involves hands-on activity where the members interact with the community they are serving (e.g., volunteering at a soup kitchen, visiting with residents of a retirement home). Indirect community service entails members participating in service without coming into contact with the community they serve (e.g., raising funds, holding a canned food drive).
