Social Action

A big thank you to Laura Horwitz for leading the breakout discussion on social action during High Holiday services.

 

Perhaps you were inspired at the turn of the Jewish New Year to get involved in Kol Rinah activities? The Tzedek Team would like to extend an invitation to you to join our group. We meet once a month (always the last Thursday of the month at 8:30 pm) to plan ways for our synagogue to pursue justice and Tikkun Olam as a community. Diverse interests and experiences are welcome!

 

Spread the joy of Hanukkah by participating in Hannukkah Huigs this season. This program, jointly sponsored by Jewish Family Services and Women's Philanthropy is seeking donations of unwrapped, new toys, books and games for their Hanukkah Hugs Store. Donations of wrapping paper, tape and gift bags are also welcome. There will be a collection box at Kol Rinah until November 14. For questions about this program email Women's Philanthropy: wp@jfedstl.org.

 

Finally, save the date of Sunday, January 23 for Kol Rinah’s Blood Drive (more details to come as the date arrives). Healthy adults who are at least 17 years old, and at least 110 pounds may donate. One pint of blood has the potential to save up to three lives!
