Our club is affiliated with, and a member in good standing of the Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs (FJMC). One of the main goals of the FJMC is to inspire Jewish men to become more involved in Jewish life, which our club strives to achieve through programming, and support of TBA's Jewish activities and learning.

In addition to the financial and volunteer support , we host religious, social and educational programs to bring our temple community, and our larger Jewish community together. Some of our annual activities include: Building the Sukkah, our annual l Paid Up Dinner, our annual World Wide Wrap on Superbowl Sunday in February, our annual Fall Show, and our annual Pancake Breakfast, cosponsored with our Sisterhood. We host programs focused on the Jewish men of our community. Our monthly General Meetings, include a bagel breakfast, and have included speakers from the Israeli Embassy,  local veterans organizations, sports personalities, local health care professionals, and others. Please visit our News and Event Page for information on upcoming programs.

In addition, each new male member of Temple Beth Ahm may receive a complimentary membership. We encourage all men of our congregation to join, and become involved.
