Do a Mitzvah in Your Sleep!
By participating in this mitzvah you are helping to provide a warm place for people to spend the night during the coldest time of the year. Without us supporting this project, two dozen people might be out on the street looking for a place to huddle for the night. Please help!

Hanukkah Mitzvah Opportunity at Jewish Senior Services
Do you have an hour to spare during this Holiday season to spread the Hanukkah light? Just one hour would mean so much to the residents at
Jewish Senior Services
. Perhaps you could bring your choir to perform, some children to sing Hanukkah songs, have a candle-lighting ceremony or help the Residents light their own menorahs. If you are unable to get to JSS, perhaps you could make cards or Hanukkah decorations. If you are interested, please call Ellen Ashkins at (203) 365-6417 or email her at
eashkins@jseniors.org
.
