PURIM 2016: READ ABOUT DONATONS & WATCH THE VIDEO

  • May 2, 2016

In light of our Year of Wrestling Together, Rabbi Miriam and Board members wowed the crowd dressed as WWF Wrestlers, contributing to making our community-wide Purim celebration on March 24th a fabulous and fun success — and we collected $270 forMatanot La’evyonim, gifts for those in need!  Half will be donated to the Out of the Cold program at Eastminster and half will go the Yad Eliezer, Israel’s largest poverty relief organization.

Thank you to all the teachers and assistants for putting together fabulous children’s programs; to Sabrina for leading us in song; to Toby King for leading the teen program; to Rabbi Miriam for leading the adults in a rather provocative, hilarious, and very adult program; and to the wonderful Anne Shaddick for coordinating it all.
