New England Yachad is holding an important fundraising campaign for 24 hours on December 20 and December 21. We are looking for volunteers from the community to make phone calls on our behalf to help us reach our goal. This is a tremendous opportunity to give an hour or two of your time to support a wonderful local non-profit organization that has far-reaching impact in the Greater Boston Jewish community.

New England Yachad creates opportunities for individuals with disabilities of all ages to engage in social activities within the Jewish community. We work hard to help Jewish communities become more inclusive and welcoming to people with disabilities and their families. Funds raised will support local programming and will help underwrite $85,000 in scholarships that we give to community members with disabilities and teen volunteers for Jewish summer camp and Israel experiences.

Questions? Contact Rina Hoffman at hoffmanr@ou.org or 781-264-3356.
