Volunteers Needed for Purim
March 1 and March 3

Every year, our Mishloach Manot program touches hundreds of people across Ottawa. For some, it’s a reminder that someone is thinking of them. For others, it may be their only connection to the Jewish community - and it truly makes their Purim brighter. Packing day is March 1, delivery day is Tuesday, March 3. This is a wonderful opportunity for students who need volunteer hours, and families, friends, or individuals who want to give back. All help is appreciated - whether you can pack, deliver, or both!
