The Social Action Committee was at the Redwood Empire Food Bank mid-April. We worked with other volunteers and assembled 350 boxes of non perishable food which will serve over 8,000 meals. On Wednesday May 15th we will be at The Palms hotel and serve dinner. Both of these projects fill our souls – we welcome you to join us. Please call Judi Hyman at 707-484-8970 or judihyman@att.net for any further information.
The SAC from Shomrei Torah is showing an important documentary movie on the white supremacy movement the United States on Sat. May, 4th at 7:00 Our SAC is a co sponsor. Please check out the flyer.
SAC served over 70 meals to the residents of The Palms. We want everyone to know what a wonderful experience it is for the Beth Ami community to help those in our broader community. The residents so appreciated our simple meal of chili, salad, homemade corn bread, and brownies. It is truly a way to make for a better world and build relationships at the same time.
We have planned to serve meals 6 times a year. Bernard and Maria Soltes will also make their fabulous pasta for 2 of those meals.
We have also have planned to volunteer at The Redwood Empire Food Bank 6 times this year. We will meet at the food bank and pack fruit or veggies from 5:00-7:00 and then go out for a simple meal.
So every month we will be either serving at the Palms or volunteering at the REFB
Please consider joining us or helping prepare food.
