Why Volunteer?
Volunteering is an essential Jewish value. Rabbi Shimon says that there are three pillars that the world rests upon: Torah, Avodah (service), and Gemilut Chasidim (acts of kindness) Pirkei Avot 1:2. Contribute to “Tikkun Olam” and repairing the world, through supporting the community with action.
