TEC Religious School and Sisterhood are leading a tzedakah project called, “A Basket of Love” and need your help!
We are collecting items for expectant mothers who cannot afford basic necessities for their newborns and can use a little TLC. We are asking members of TEC to sign up and donate items that are listed. Our goal is to make 20 baskets, but people can purchase the number of items they are comfortable with. The items can be dropped off at the Temple building, outside in designated bins.
During the Religious School Hanukkah celebration on Sunday, Dec. 18, students will put the baskets together. The baskets will then be transported to Project Just Because in Hopkinton.
Please bring your donations to the Temple by Wednesday, Dec. 14.
Join us outside for our Sisterhood Hanukkah Celebration and Yankee Swap.
We will gather around the firepit, enjoy s’mores, hot cocoa, and BYOS (bring your own spirits).
If you would like to participate in the Yankee Swap, bring a gift wrapped present.
Let us know you’re coming!
