Beyond the B'nei Mitzvah, recipients of the golden kippah participate in High Holy Day services and are considered role models among our younger students. This special ritual item will let all those around you know that you have completed this special program. The Golden Kippah is a sign that you will remain connected and committed to Judaism and your Temple community.

To participate in the 13@13 program and earn a golden kippah, please email the cantor's office at cantorsoffice@wbtla.org.

In order to receive a golden kippah at your B'nei, Bar or Bat Mitzvah service, all credits must be earned during the year prior to your service.

If you are unable to complete the program by the date of your B'nei, Bar or Bat Mitzvah, that’s ok! You are encouraged to continue to earn credits in order to qualify for your golden kippah anytime after you become B'nei Mitzvah. We will award you with a golden kippah when all of the 13@13 program requirements are completed.

There is no additional cost associated with the 13@13 program.
