The 3 P's (Purim, Passover, Packing)

A little out of order, but I'm going to start with PASSOVER.

During Passover, I will be traveling to the Former Soviet Union with 10 classmates to lead Passover Seders and other educational programs in Reform Jewish communities. In preparation for this project we have been spending time studying how to conduct a Passover Seder, and learning the history and culture of the Jewish communities we will be visiting. In all of the Soviet Union there has been continued Jewish development in the FSU, but there are currently ONLY SIX rabbis serving hundreds of Jewish communities.

This is where I am asking for your help. The project is made possible by fundraising. The donations pay for everything including travel expenses, educational materials, and supplies for all members of the communities we visit (ranging from toddlers to senior citizens), and a gift to show our continued support for these struggling Jewish communities.

PLEASE visit this website to find out more information about the project and to donate please click HERE.

Thank you in advance,
Amanda
