We Want YOU to Help Us Build a Better Kiddush! (A Call for Volunteers!)
The Kiddush Committee is looking for volunteers with a variety of skills and levels of participation. Want a creative outlet? Love food styling? Want to make friends while laughing over cookie platters in the kitchen? We welcome all volunteers, age 12 and above, for weekly kiddush prep help and would like to build a rotation of food/table prep helpers. Your commitment may be once a week, once a month, or once a year. We are also looking for "Kiddush Captains" who can oversee the volunteers and kiddush prep (no more than once a month). If you have any inkling of interest (or any great ideas to share), please email dinaepstein@gmail.com to be added to our rotation of volunteers--we'll be sure to find the right role for you!
