I love the idea of Jewish values connecting to environmental values. Through my work with Repair, I was able to reconnect with some of those Jewish values that I had grown up with but had not had as much of a connection two as an adult.
Rebecca (she/her), Volunteer
As volunteers we gathered at an urban farm on 134 St., that grows vegetables and houses chickens that produce eggs. But our job was not gardening but cleaning the neighborhood. Equipped with squeeze handle grabbers and garbage bags, we walked over to 131st St., and picked up all the trash on the street.

For one of the first times in my life I felt that I was truly helping others by doing service.
