Bnos Programming
Calling all girls!

Fall is here. Kids are back in school. Yom tov is coming.
And Mrs. Chana Baila Hass and the Bnos team are busy cooking up exciting new programs and ideas for this new Bnos season.
Here's a sneak peek a what's in store:

This year's Bnos will be jam-packed with incredible virtual opportunities like Bnos in a Box, newsletters, the Bnos Hotline, and virtual Tehillim groups, as well as Bnos programming.
The Bnos theme is "Building Middos Together." Watch out for the fantastic new theme song and a packed calendar with stories and lessons.

Would you like to bring the excitement of Bnos to your city or neighborhood?
Contact Bnos at cbhass@agudah.org or call 212-797-9000 ext. 330 to start a Bnos chapter. New Bnos chapters receive an opening packet with everything you need to get started.

Bnos One on One
Bnos One on One pairs high school Big Sisters with middle school Little Sisters. The Sisters spend time together once a week and participate in group activities a few times a year. The Little Sisters love the attention, and the Big Sisters grow from giving their time.
This year features Virtual Sisters, of course, until it's safe to meet in person. Big Sisters will also be sharing and teaching skills from baking to sewing to hairdressing

Bnos Bikur Cholim (BBC)
Bnos Bikur Cholim (BBC) matches seniors with high school visitors. For this season, BBC is continuing its "Call a Few" program, having girls reach out to seniors by phone instead of in-person. There are hundreds of phone pairs, but still many seniors looking for a phone mate.
And be on the lookout for some new BBC programming in the works!
