Let's change the world together!

On the heels of our High Holiday kavanah, A Covenant of Chesed, we continue pursuing chesed in our Jewish lives. Join us for Mitzvah Day and spread some love. While our annual celebration of community service will stand virtually this year, the work we accomplish together will make real differences in the lives of many. By participating in our Mitzvah Day initiatives, we have the opportunity to do something good in this world, even if only for an hour or so.
