Milt Carl (z"l) was an icon in our community: a tremendous soul, a mensch, a terrific father and grandfather, and a leader who changed the landscape of the Portland Jewish Community. If you Google directions to B'nai B'rith Camp, you'll see that you turn onto "Milt Carl Way". The name does not just refer to a street but rather a philosophy of how to conduct yourself in the world: to spend your time supporting others, volunteering your time, donating a bit extra "until it hurts just a little," and always asking others to give.
B'nai B'rith Camp and Congregation Shaarie Torah were two organizations especially important to Milt. In 2019 we joined together to create the Milt Carl Way Awards, honoring those who do it "Milt's Way." These honorees care deeply about the Jewish Community, do profound work for many organizations, and feel most themselves when they are giving of their time and resources. Most importantly, these honorees encourage the community to come together and make something new a reality all through the lens of giving.
We are delighted to announce the 2022 Milt Carl Way Awards Recipients:
