SOCIAL ACTION
IT’S ALREADY THAT TIME….
HELP A NEEDY FAMILY FOR THE HOLIDAYS
Why we run this program? The following is an excerpt of one of the thank you notes we received on behalf of a family we sponsored:
“This family has never experienced such great generosity. They felt overjoyed and emotional upon receiving the gifts. The mother told me she
was happy to see that her children finally had toys to play with so they are no longer bored at home. The teachers commented that they
noticed the children’s self esteem improved when they came to school proudly dressed in their new clothes. The children are now appropriately
dressed for the weather and are even wearing socks which were noticeably missing prior to receiving the gifts. They sleep much more
comfortably at night with their new blankets and their heater…..” This is why we run this program…to make a difference in peoples’ lives.
Who are these families? These families are all in need. They are referred by various sources including Jewish Family Services, local welfare
directors, school social workers and senior centers.
How does this program work? Each family will fill out a wish list of their needs. The wish lists typically include items like towels, sheets,
blankets, clothing, shoes, coats and children’s toys.
How can you help?
1.
Become a family coordinator for one family’s wish list. This might involve getting your family, friends, co-workers, and merchants to donate
the needed items to fulfill the family’s wish list.
2.
Volunteer to obtain one or more of the items on a family’s wish list.
Donate money that will be specifically used to purchase items on a family’s wish list. Checks should be made payable to Congregation B’nai
Tikvah Holiday Program.
