Join other moms and kids (ages 4 and up) to package Birthday Boxes filled with all the essential items to make birthdays special for kids from families in need.

We'll meet at the Jewish Family Service Barbash Family Vital Support Center from 2 to 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 24 to put together boxes including cake mix, frosting, paper plates and napkins, and even a hand-decorated card, made by our youngest volunteers. We will also have activities for children to decorate boxes and learn about mitzvot.

Please sign up to attend and let us know which items you'll be bringing for the birthday boxes. And as a bonus, we are asking families to bring one item from the list of needs from Jewish Family Service. We would love for the kids to put this item on the pantry shelf. Please view the list of JFS needs here.

Thank you to our event hosts, Miriam Hodesh and Rachel Westheimer, and to our Women's Philanthropy leadership, Carrie Goldhoff and Jessica Kuresman.
