5780 has been an unprecedented, challenging year.
For years we have hosted an in person annual Erev Yom Kippur Program at Heichal HaTorah/the Jewish Center of Teaneck. The program has featured hands on projects led by our staff and volunteers from local schools and yeshivot that have benefited local and Israel based agencies. Participants have also been able to take some projects home to enhance their chagim.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic we unfortunately are unable to offer an in person program this year. We will instead be offering a box of projects, supplies and instructions for pick up on Erev Yom Kippur, Sunday, September 27 in Teaneck. Those that order a box will receive further information about pickup.
Each box is $20 and will have supplies for two people. Some projects will be yours to keep and others are expected to be returned so that they can be donated to communal agencies.
Areyvut’s 5781 Pre-Yom Kippur Chesed Box is a wonderful way for kids to spend some meaningful time before Yom Kippur and an opportunity to teach them to actively do good.
Please support our commUNITY and building programs and include Areyvut in your Erev Yom Kippur charitable giving. All donations and sponsorship’s are tax deductible. We appreciate every donation. Every donor will receive a thank you and acknowledgement letter for tax purposes.
This program is dedicated in memory of Eliyahu ben Moshe HaCohen and Chiena Miza bat Moshe, Edward and Mitzi Traurig.
We ask that participants send us pictures and/or videos of your child/family working on the projects and if you post to social media please tag us @Areyvut
For more information and/or to arrange an Areyvut program in your synagogue, school or community, please contact us at (201) 244-6702 or [email protected].
Best wishes to you and your family for a Shana Tova, a healthy, happy, peaceful, purposeful and productive New Year, one where we all actively add light to the world.
