Please join this community-wide, congregational Mitzvah Day event! Register to volunteer below. We will have several large events that enable us to engage in communal acts of gemilut chasadim (loving kindness), tikkun olam (repairing the world), and shomrei adamah (guarding the earth). Thank you!

Many projects require a co-registering and co-volunteering grown-up to accompany their youth, please check carefully and make sure you are planning to stay and co-volunteer if you choose one of those projects for your youth! Youth who do not have a co-volunteering grown-up must register for a project that allows this AND must be checked-in by their adult at a check-in table.
