NovDec 2022 Fund in Focus: Hunger and Homelessness Fund
November/December Fund in Focus: Hunger and Homelessness Fund
Local organizations providing food and shelter are still facing a high demand for services from people affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and from those whose incomes cannot keep pace with inflation and with the already high cost of living in our area. Many local individuals and families, including members of our Jewish community, rely on support from organizations that we fund with our Hunger and Homelessness appeal. Your contribution helps the Beth Am community fulfill our sacred obligation to comfort and support the less fortunate in our midst. Donations to our Hunger and Homelessness Fund get distributed to the following organizations serving the needy in our local community:
● Jewish Family and Children’s Services
● Ecumenical Hunger Program
● LifeMoves
● Home & Hope
● Community Services Agency
● Second Harvest Food Bank
● Habitat for Humanity
As we move into the holiday season, let’s remember to share our good fortune with others who need help. Please consider making a gift to Beth Am’s Hunger and Homelessness Fund by donating online or by mailing a check made payable to “Congregation Beth Am” to the Administrative Office as follows:
Congregation Beth Am
Attn: Tzedakah Box — Hunger & Homelessness Fund
