Rebbetzin PB Alyesh
Outreach Associate
A born and bred Texan, Penina Bracha Alyesh, spent her formative years in Dallas, TX. Summers were focused on camp  – first the backyard variety and then stints as a mother’s helper, chief photographer, office manager and head waitress. Her organizational skills, giving nature, love of music and dancing made her GO head in high school and an integral part of multiple women’s artistic productions. Penina Bracha loves a good party – especially planning, cooking and baking for them.
 
Penina Bracha and her husband, Rabbi Tzvi, are the proud parents of a delightful daughter, Gitty.

Olami Trekkers

We are blessed to have a community of Young Professionals who invest in the Olami Denver Experience on a monthly basis. Through their partnership we are able to continue to provide the dynamic programming that we do. Please consider partnering with us as a monthly giver.

Whether through our inspirational Jewish Educational opportunities, cutting edge social programs, meaningful social action opportunities, sports leagues or Shabbos Dinners, we aim to bring as many young people as possible together to celebrate the beauty of our heritage. Our Trekkers are not simply the beneficiaries of these programs– but they are vital leaders, role models and partners. Their commitment and acceptance of responsibility is what enables us to grow into a true community that will continue to thrive for years to come.

As a small token of our immense gratitude for our trekkers, whose monthly gifts ranges from $10-$130 a month, all trekkers attend our local programs for half off, and they are given customized Yeti water bottles. There are also exclusive Trekker Programs, including a private tour of a distillery, and much more.
