Service brings us together to tackle society’s greatest challenges, build stronger communities, and be a force that transforms the world. Jewish tradition reminds us that a person is commanded to work towards justice, tzedek, by working to build a just, complete world. We serve alongside our communities in pursuit of a just society while seeking to create meaningful and lasting change. Join us.

We’re thrilled to partner with Miracle Messages to provide a fully virtual opportunity that enables you to make a huge impact in the life of someone experiencing homelessness. Miracle Messages has a ‘phone buddy’ program that matches volunteers with individuals isolated by homelessness for weekly phone calls and text messages to provide companionship and social support. After a brief info session and training (offered every Wednesday), you will be set up with a separate and secure phone number that will allow you to keep in touch with your buddy throughout the week. Sign up to learn more!

Today, there are over 100 million forcibly displaced people — the highest number since World War II — requiring us to recommit to our efforts to welcome the stranger.

Join HIAS at Building Bridges: Welcoming the Stranger, a conversation hosted by the Holocaust Museum LA to explore how we can apply lessons from our past to today’s challenges facing those seeking refuge. Building Bridges is a cross-cultural discussion series that brings together leaders from diverse communities for town hall conversations about working toward common social justice goals.

Collective Escape 2023 - Project Angel Food

Los Angeles
Food Justice
Begins: 08:15 AM (PT)
Ends: 12:00 PM (PT)
Project Angel Food
922 Vine St
Los Angeles, CA 90038
As part of NuRoots' Collective Escape '23, honor Passover by joining Repair the World LA to support Project Angel Food by preparing and packaging 3,000 meals for their seriously ill neighbors. Project Angel Food prepares and delivers over one million medically tailored meals each year, free of charge, to homes of men, women, and children affected by life-threatening illnesses. Passover is rich in social justice themes. It is impossible to study the Jewish story of redemption and not feel compelled to eradicate injustice in the world today. Among the primary social justice themes found in the Exodus story and in the Passover observance are hunger, homelessness, oppression, and redemption. - reformjudaism.org

We invite you to join us, and our partner The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles, as we take part in a global day of service – Good Deeds Day – on Sunday, April 16th, 2023. Good Deeds Day started in Israel with the simple idea that even the smallest positive action can change the world for the better. We are offering two ways for you to participate in this empowering celebration of service: 1) Heal the Bay: Help us clean Venice Beach by picking up trash that often gets overlooked but poses a danger to ocean animals and our environment. And 2) Volunteer for Seniors at LA Jewish Health (LAJH): Bring a little joy to a cherished segment of our community. Join us as we prepare two LAJH locations to celebrate Yom Ha'atzmaut!
