Repair the World LA is thrilled to offer a FREE two-part online financial literacy course by Bruce Miller of Understanding Money. Two 90-minute Zoom sessions: Oct 17 & 24. We all need to learn to manage our money, but we don’t get taught how to do it. Understanding Money fixes that! Bruce started his working life like many folks: with student debt and very little money. Over time, he learned to follow some simple money principles that enabled him to get out of debt, save and invest, and retire in his 50s. Bruce has dedicated his retirement years to making financial literacy accessible to all. He developed Understanding Money to foster that mission and has empowered over 1,000 people to make their way to financial freedom. He works pro bono with no connections to financial products.

Join us on this National Day of Jewish Service (NDJS) on October 22 as we kick off our Food Access Campaign. Repair the World LA will be partnering with Our Big Kitchen LA to prepare 300 - 400 meals to be distributed to those in need across Los Angeles!

Jewish Federation of Greater Los AngelesLos Angeles
Sunday, October 29th from 5:00 AM – 5:00 PM is the Federation's 11th annual Tour de Summer Camps (TdSC) event! This day features cyclists of all kinds, from beginner to expert level. You can participate in three ways: as a rider out on the course, Cycle at Camp on stationary or spin bikes, or hike on the local grounds. They'll need volunteers on-site to help check in riders, cover water stations on the road, and cheer on the participants as they complete the race. This is a spectacular annual event that has made it possible for thousands of children to have a transformative Jewish summer camp experience. Many would not otherwise be able to afford the cost without the financial support generated by TdSC. You won’t want to miss it! Multiple shifts available.
