The Littlest Volunteer journey continues with A Purim Get-Together: Featuring PJ Library!
Purim is one of the most joyous holidays for the Jewish people—a time to celebrate, dress up, and have fun. The giving of mishloach manot (Purim food baskets) adds special meaning to the celebration.
For this Littlest Volunteer initiative, families will pack mishloach manot and donate them to local food banks. In partnership with PJ Library, you can even apply for a Get Together Grant to cover some costs!
FAQ:
-
Where will packing take place? This is an at-home activity using your own supplies.
