We so appreciate you and your interest in this program and while we generally want to accommodate as many people as possible the space and sensitivity to COVID do not make that possible. Therefore, we have had to close registration because we are at capacity. If you are still looking for meaningful ways to engage your children please consider purchasing this Chesed Craft Box https://areyvut.org/product/chesed-craft-box-for-local-pick-up/ that features 10 projects with instructions, supplies and videos available for pick up in Teaneck and you can always contact us at [email protected] and we will try our best to offer you some options to meet your needs.
Join Areyvut for our annual Erev Yom Kippur Chesed Program dedicated in memory of Eliyahu ben Moshe HaCohen and Chiena Miza bat Moshe, Edward and Mitzi Traurig. The Traurig’s were active leaders in their community and represented the values that Areyvut seeks to teach. May their memory be for a blessing and the chesed done in their memory bring an aliyah to their neshamot.
The Erev Yom Kippur Chesed Program is a drop off program geared for children in pre-kindergarten through 4th grade, although children of all ages are welcome and of course parents too are welcome to stay.
The program will be taking place in the tent at Congregation Arzei Darom and we thank Arzei for their partnership, hospitality, kindness and generosity.
Health, safety and welfare is of critical import and we want to make sure that you do what you are comfortable doing. As the program will be taking place outdoors we will not be requiring masks and encourage you to send your child with a mask if you would like.
This program is a wonderful way to spend some time before Yom Kippur and to teach your children the importance of actively doing good, helping others and giving back. Projects will benefit communal agencies and participants will be able to take some projects home to enhance their chagim experience.
This year features all new projects including an exciting partnership with Sunshine Pottery and an awesome, fun and interactive music program!
The fee is $25 per participant.
Please note that we have never raised the price for this event and we run this program to a) engage kids from a young age in actively doing good and b) to provide parents some time to prepare for Yom Kippur while knowing your child is safe, having fun and meaningfully engaged. The fee covers all project related supplies, snacks and the awesome interactive music program.
