Mama Belong is a program designed to support and help new and expecting Jewish moms in our community and to connect them with each another and with Jewish traditions. This program is a cooperation between Mamatefet and Belong, a Bayit initiative, two organizations joining forces to recognize and celebrate the addition of a new baby to the family in a giving way. Mama-Belong, together with volunteers from our community will embrace every family who just had a new baby with a meal and a special gift basket.

The meal will be delivered two weeks after the due date unless specified otherwise. 

Currently, deliveries will only be to Vancouver and Richmond families. If you are outside of these cities and are able to arrange pick-up we would be happy to provide you with our services.
