The Beth Or Social Action Committee's long-running Just One Project has a new name: Our Every Day Collections. Below is a list of what we are collecting year-round to meet some of the needs within the Greater Philadelphia area. Please drop off items in the labeled bins located in the school lobby and main entrance vestibule.
Household Items such as utensils, dishes, pots/pans, small appliances and lamps for refugees who have recently settled in Philadelphia through the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS Pennsylvania). Chair: Theresa Knee.
Toiletries & Gently Used Clothing for individuals and families living in crisis or faced with homelessness or severe illness who are served by Mitzvah Circle.
Non-perishable Food for residents of Hope Gardens, an Inter-Faith Housing Alliance transitional housing program in Ambler.
Children's Clothing, Shoes, Books, School Supplies, Diapers, Strollers and Car Seats for infants to age 12 who reside in a homeless shelter or who live in a low-income home, served by Cradles to Crayons.
Throughout the year, the Social Action Committee leads other collections that benefit our neighbors, such as men and women who require basic clothing for interviews or work, and parents whose children are patients at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). We thank you in advance for your support of Our Every Day Collections.
Contact Susy Krimker or Margie Chachkin with questions about these programs.
