WIN Food Pantry - Spring into Action
The Wayne Interfaith Network is encouraging people to "Spring Into Action" and donate to its food pantry, to help 170 local families.
Click here for Wayne Patch's article.
As we welcome spring and watch with pleasure the greening of our lawns, the blossoming of our trees and the return of our beautiful songbirds, we must also remember that our neighbors in need are still counting on us to keep the shelves of the WIN Food Pantry stocked. And so we ask that you continue to bring non-perishable foods to the temple collection bin for distribution to those neighbors.
A visit to the WIN website: www.winfoodpantry.org will tell you exactly what is needed, and will also allow you to make a monetary donation online. If you prefer to write a check, please make it payable to WIN Food Pantry and either mail or bring it to the temple office. Please indicate on your check or on your online donation that you are a member of Temple Beth Tikvah.
We thank you for your ongoing generosity and hope that we can enjoy the beauty of springtime and share our feeling of well-being with those less fortunate.
“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.”-Winston Churchill
