Announcing: The Israel Trip Savings Account

Right now, our seniors are enjoying a life-changing experience: their Senior Trip to Poland and Israel. This month-long trip is the  culmination of a BT education, allowing them to bear witness to the devastating impact of the Holocaust in Europe and experience the exhilarating modern miracle of the State of Israel. Together, students and their educators forge powerful bonds to their heritage and to each other as they explore the history, culture, archaeology, geography, and people that unite us.

We know the cost of the trip can be a challenge, so Beth Tfiloh created the Israel Trip Savings Accounts to help you begin saving toward the cost of the Senior Trip to Israel and Poland. We strongly encourage parents to create these accounts as early as possible during your child’s tenure at Beth Tfiloh.

We are pleased to announce that Beth Tfiloh has made special arrangements with Susquehanna Bank to facilitate the creation of Israel Trip Savings Accounts for our school families. These savings accounts have the following features:
  • Beth Tfiloh to make an annual contribution to each account equal to 2% of total annual deposits made by parents for the applicable school year (not to exceed $100 per account annually), calculated once per year. Beth Tfiloh contributions will vest upon a student participating in the Beth Tfiloh Senior Israel trip.
  • Interest would be paid by the bank (subject to bank’s rates)
  • No minimum deposit
  • Deposits made by parents and related interest earned may be withdrawn at any time.
  • No fees
  • All deposits made through Beth Tfiloh Business Office
  • FDIC insured
To open your child’s Israel Trip Savings Account, please complete and return IRS Form W-9 with your check payable to “Beth Tfiloh Israel Savings Account.”

For questions, please contact Harriet Rosen, School Administrator, at 410-413-2310 or hrosen@btfiloh.org.
