We are all going through more difficult times than normal. The Caring Committee, part of Ohev Shalom’s strong, vibrant community is dedicated to Friendraising, not fundraising, to support congregants with specific personal and practical needs. This is not charity, but rather a way for us to give back and support our Ohev members with respect, allowing them to maintain their dignity. Please do not hesitate to ask for assistance. Know that we are here to provide help, support or even a friendly phone call. Please reach out to the Caring Committee at caring@ohev.org. We look forward to hearing from you. Stay safe and healthy.
