IUCC and University Synagogue Interfaith Volunteer Event on February 6

When we did a survey at our last Women to Women Event with University Synagogue, one of the most requested activities was a joint community service event. That is now happening! University Synagogue is spearheading a Joint Interfaith Volunteer project to help Second Harvest, a wonderful organization that provides food for the needy. The synagogue was given 25 spots to be filled with a combination of volunteers from our two congregations. This opportunity is taking place on Thursday, February 6, 2025 from 12:30 p.m. to 3 p.m. at the Second Harvest Distribution Center (8014 Marine Way, Irvine, CA).  

LAST CHANCE TO RSVP! The synagogue has asked that we provide them with a list of our volunteers as soon as possible so we have an accurate headcount, so please email tricia_aynes@yahoo.com by that date if you are able to participate. Participants will also need to register individually with Second Harvest no later than January 23 at https://feedoc.volunteerhub.com/vv2/lp/UniversitySynagogue/event/ca6b274c-cb1a-4e5c-af3b-9ec9fe328fd3
