Join us for a morning of volunteer projects, story time, and advocacy to help folks around the DC area who are experiencing homelessness, food insecurity, and other challenges. Activities will include food packaging, making cards, packing toiletries, and other activities. Intended for children ages 5+, but everyone is welcome.

Please note: we will be using products that contain gluten and dairy but no nut products.

Pre-registration is required for this program, and we expect it to fill up quickly! We request a $18 per person registration fee to help offset the cost of supplies for this project for anyone over the age of 5. If this is in any way prohibitive to your participation please email Sonya at sonyaw@edcjcc.org.

This program is brought to you in partnership with PJ Library. PJ Library (PJ, as in “pajamas”) is a program for families with young children, brought to you locally by The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington. PJ Library hosts service projects with community partners like the EDCJCC to teach young children the Jewish value of tikkun olam (repairing the world) through hands-on opportunities to give back.
