2019-20 Season - Room In The Inn - Beth Sholom
Every year on Yom Kippur we read about the mitzvah to share bread with the hungry and bring them home. (Isaiah 58:6-7)
As part of our commitment to Tikkun Olam (repairing the world), Beth Sholom will open its doors to provide hot meals and safe overnight shelter for 13 women (and children if needed) who are experiencing homelessness. We will serve as hosts 5 times throughout this 19-20 winter.
