Join us for our monthly cooking session with Silverstein Base Lincoln Park! Together, we cook and serve a meal for the residents in transitional housing at Lincoln Park Community Services.

Kneading Kindness is a monthly womens shiur and challah bake benefiting a different local nonprofit each month. This month, we will be partnering with Chabad of Schunat Levintin.

For a long time, this area has been one of the villages prone to flooding during the rainy season and drought during the sunny season. This program will bring together community members and volunteers in Namabasa to plant trees and promote environmental conservation. Participants will learn how trees help prevent soil erosion, protect the environment, and build a healthier community. Through the Adopt-A-Tree idea, volunteers will take responsibility for watering, nurturing, and daily care of their assigned trees, monitoring their growth and survival.

We’ll be making toiletry kits for the women’s shelter at Dough on Vanderbilt in Prospect Heights in honor of domestic violence month this October and will be partnering with NYCFilipinos since it is Filipino American History Month. Come and make a toiletry kit and enjoy a sweet treat!

Spend a morning with us at the Collins & Katz Family YMCA food bank, where we’ll sort, bag, and hand out fresh and non-perishable groceries to families in West LA. Before the shift, we’ll explore a short Jewish text about our responsibility to feed the hungry and talk about what it means for us today. We’ll close by reflecting together on the morning.
