Throughout Jewish Baltimore, dozens of organizations have come together to create the local version of what has been coined in other communities as "a little book with a big mission.”  The Baltimore Green & Just Celebrations Guide helps families in our area celebrate weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs and other simchas in ways that reflect Jewish values about environmental stewardship and social justice.

Baltimore Green & Just Celebrations Guide Committee members celebrated the launch of the Guide a few days before Rosh Hashanah 5773 on September 11, 2012.

· Make purchasing choices in ways that are mindful of social and environmental impact

· Delve into Jewish teachings about justice and sustainability

· Read the stories of others who have made creative green and just choices for their own celebrations
