Super Sunday Volunteer Opportunities

Good Deeds Day is an annual celebration where hundreds of thousands of volunteers all over the world choose to put into practice the simple idea that every single person can do something good, be it large or small, to improve the lives of others and positively change the world.

Super Sunday, Federation’s largest annual phonathon, is a marathon of good deeds, aimed at raising funds to create more good deeds 365 days a year through Federation programs and services.

Join the worldwide effort at making the world a better place by…

10:00 am (Ages 5 and younger): Create beautiful placemats for the elderly!
Get ready to brighten the day of an older adult who attends a Jewish Community Services Meal Site.

Volunteers will be creating bright, fun and festive placemats which will be donated to the Meal Site for the seniors to enjoy. All placemats have a Jewish theme, are easy to make and will enhance your creative spirit. Have fun, give back and enjoy doing a mitzvah!

10:30 am (Ages 12-14): WE NEED MITZVAH HELPERS!
Are you a B’nai Mitzvah student or a Middle School student?

We need your help! Please sign up to do a good deed and assist us as a MITZVAH CAPTAIN for our placemat making project. You will help the children create the placemat, assist with cutting and pasting, and laminate each of their placemats. We will set up a reading station for Captains to read PJ Library stories to the children and serve as a role model for our younger generation. In addition, you will have the chance to make phone calls in our AWESOME TEEN ROOM!

Community service hours are available.

10:30 am (Ages 9-12)- PJ Our Way and the JVC present: Brown Bagged Lunch creation to benefit our homeless in Miami.
Tweens and their families can make brown bagged lunches onsite and create inspirational cards for the homeless in our community. These lunches will go to one of our local homeless shelters; they will be arriving with their van to pick up the bagged lunches around noon.

1:00 pm (Ages 14-18): Bake challah alongside special needs teens!
Bake challah alongside special needs teens to take home to their families for Shabbat. High school teens will be paired with special needs teens to knead flour and braid dough to create a wonderful loaf of challah.

10:00 am (under the tent): Family project!
Families with children 5 to 8 years old are asked to bring BRAND NEW pajamas sized 5-14 and a gently read or new book to this project. Volunteers are also asked to bring non-perishable snacks like cookies or power bars! Together with your family, your child will make a book plate to place inside the book and a card to go with the package. Families will wrap up the pajamas with cellophane and ribbons. These packages will be given to women and children in need locally in our community.
