Volunteer at Special Needs Seder

The Miami Jewish Abilities Alliance (MJAA), a Federation program, is recruiting volunteers for a Passover Special Mitzvah Seder, an event designed specifically for Jewish adults with developmental or physical challenges organized by Beth Torah Benny Rok Campus. The event takes place on Monday, April 10 at Beth Torah Benny Rok Campus and volunteers are needed to serve as one-on-one companions for the participants and guide them through the Seder service and dinner. Help is also needed for setup and serving. The Seder, which is partially funded by an MJAA Inclusion Grant, has been structured to accommodate adults with disabilities, including seating with no more than seven people per table. Each guest will receive a filled Seder plate, a unique Haggadah in Pictures and a song sheet. There will be singing of prayers and songs with the words projected on a screen to make it easy to follow along. Souvenir photos will be available and each participant will leave with a plush frog keepsake. To see the volunteer opportunities and to register click here.
