Russian-Speaking PJ Library Program Serves Miami’s Growing Russian Jewish Population

Less than two years since its launch, Miami's Russian-Speaking PJ Library program has more than 300 subscribers from Northeast Dade’s Russian Jewish population. Like the original PJ Library program, participants ages 6 months through 8 years old receive free, monthly Jewish-themed books and music. Thanks to funding from the Genesis Philanthropy Group, they are also engaged in bilingual (English and Russian), culturally relevant family programming. Recent events have included a Passover BBQ in the park and Russian Shabbat dinners. PJ Library in Miami is a gift from Federation made possible by the Harold Grinspoon Foundation and the Blank Family Foundation. To learn more, email [email protected].
