H.O.P.E. Returns to Yeshivat Noam     

Last week Areyvut launched it’s 3rd year of H.O.P.E. (Helping Organizations Provide Essentials), at Yeshivat Noam in Paramus, NJ.  This year’s group comprised of students in the 7th grade will learn about philanthropic giving, what it means to give “Jewishly” and ultimately allocate funds to local organizations in need.  We are looking forward to a wonderful program year.

For more information about H.O.P.E. or to bring a similar program to your school, synagogue or community center, please contact us at (201) 244-6702 or info@areyvut.org.
