For Purim this year, we will be leading up into it with a few mitzvah activities for the youth/children.

 

1. Tzedakah jars/boxes for the children to make offerings. These tzedakah will go to two places: EC Mercy Fund and Akiva Cohen’s ministry to the disabled children in Israel.

2. Purim canned and dried food drive. All gifts will be taken to the Jewish Family Services food pantry in Dallas TX on or by Purim as a mitzvah. Foods should be: non-perishable, dried or canned preferably with a hechsher (Kosher symbol). If you have questions about clean/kosher please click here. No meat. No refrigerated foods. Not expired.

Both the Tzedakah boxes and the canned food collection will continue this Shabbat. The tzedakah jars and collection box will be out in the foyer. Please give generously

3. Purim Art Gallery – We’re inviting our youth at Eitz Chaim to draw, paint, make art that is Purim-focused to be showcased in the lobby during Purim. All entries should be submitted to Margaret Klein or Beth Smith by 3/7/2020. Purim art will be displayed in the foyer the day of the Purim Play March 14
