Community program of Tikkun Olam on food insecurity

An important Jewish value is helping those in need. With the assistance of our NextDOR students, we plan to make 150 bagged lunches for Light of Life Rescue Mission, a place where hope and healing meet for men, women, and families experiencing homelessness, poverty, or addiction. 

Members of the Church of the Redeemer will join us at 12 PM for a light lunch and a presentation from community experts on food insecurity.

Contact Lynn Rubenson at lynnrubenson@gmail.com with questions and to volunteer to set up and help coordinate the packing of the lunches.
