Third Annual Jewish Community Volunteer Day Set for December 24

On Friday, December 24, you can join members from across Jewish Miami for one of our community’s newest annual traditions: the Third Annual Jewish Community Volunteer Day, sponsored by Ford Motor Company.

Chaired by Amy and William Wildstein, this community-wide event is coordinated by the Jewish Volunteer Center (JVC) of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation. Volunteers can participate in more than 12 different hands-on projects taking place throughout our community, including feeding the homeless, a blood drive, beautification projects, visiting with seniors, a children’s book drive and more. The JVC Chair is Mark Kravitz.

Check-in will begin at 8:30 a.m. at the Greater Miami Jewish Federation Stanley C. Myers Building, 4200 Biscayne Boulevard, Miami.

Registration for this event will open during the first week of December. For more information, email [email protected], or call 786.866.8414.
