Register Now for Our 14th Annual Everything but the Turkey

Join Federation’s Jewish Volunteer Center (JVC) on Sunday, November 20 at 10 a.m. for a hands-on volunteering opportunity at the 14th annual Everything but the Turkey. Together, we will make Thanksgiving more meaningful for community members experiencing food insecurity by assembling 2,500 bento box lunches complete with fresh fruit and winter kits for our community fridge program and local homeless shelters. All ages are encouraged to participate in this popular and family-friendly event, but space is limited so make your plans and register now. This year’s in-person event will be “mixing it up” in two locations. Click here to volunteer at Beth Torah Benny Rok Campus in Aventura.
