Collecting Supplies for Ukrainian Refugees

Throughout the month of April, in recognition of Passover, and the Jews exodus from Egypt, we will be collecting items to send overseas to Ukrainian refugees. If you would like to contribute, contact information is in the flyer below. If you’d prefer to make a monetary donation, our previous blog post on Ukraine has a number of organizations who need your support.
