Mitzvah Morning – December 15, 10:00 a.m. B’nai Israel

For our December Mitzvah Morning we will be partnering with The Center for Family Justice (CFJ) and the Department of Children and Families (DCF) to deliver holiday gifts to families in need.   CFJ and DCF both work with many families who do not have the means to buy holiday gifts, so our Mitzvah Morning project will revolve around providing gifts for the children of these families.

Each of our volunteers will be matched with a child who has filled out a request for a specific gift.  Volunteers will fulfill the gift request, and then we will all assemble as a community on December 15 at B’nai Israel to wrap our gifts together, and present them to the CFJ team.  If you cannot make the December 15 event, you are still more than welcome to sponsor a child and buy the gifts, and our volunteers will take care of the wrapping.  You can drop off the gifts at B’nai Israel in advance, or have them sent directly there to Chris Rocha.

Please sign up via the Sign Up Genius and you will then be notified of your match and the gift request.

This will be a fun event where volunteers will gather as a community, while making a real and meaningful impact on a child’s life.  If you have any questions, please reach out to Helaine Greenbaum at
