Matzah Mitzvah is a collaboration between Jewish Community Services of South Florida and Federation. Many other local Federation partners also participate. Volunteers can join the effort in North Dade at Jewish Leadership Academy or in South Dade at Temple Beth Am. Advance registration is required and fills up quickly. Click here to register.
