What We Do
For Bar/Bat Mitzvah: Putting Tikkun Olam Into Action
Being a Bar or Bat Mitzvah is a special time. It’s a time to embrace Tikkun Olam, and make a difference in the world. And it’s a time to choose a meaningful and enjoyable Mitzvah Project.
Here are just a few of the projects we can do together:
- Conducting a drive for personal hygiene items, backpacks, and school supplies.
- Leading an arts and crafts project for children at a Hand Up food distribution or at the Children’s Hub at our Safe Parking Program.
- Conducting a food drive for the Hand Up Food Pantry.
- Bringing activities to older adults at our Social & Wellness Centers.
- Contributing to holiday programs through donations or volunteering—Passover Packages, Thanksgiving Packages, Embrace-A-Family.
- Bring companionship to an isolated individual.
- And much more!
