Join Sisterhood for their Welcome Home Baskets, an important social action project which will provide 40 baskets full of housewarming items for Houston’s newly arrived immigrants and families in need. Sisterhood invites you to help sort items on October 23, 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

You can participate by dropping off new or nearly new items, such as sets for 4 of dishes, silverware, glasses and bath towels, and pots and pans, electric coffee pots, cleaning products, basic tools, and children’s books. These can be placed in bins in the west rotunda. Click below to order items from Amazon or Target gift registries.

For more information and to volunteer, please contact Sylvia Brody at welcomebasket22@gmail.com.

Volunteers are needed to help with all aspects of the process. This is a project for every age and stage, and we encourage families, students and all congregants to play a part. Volunteers are needed for basket assembly days on November 6 (for delivery on November 13), and December 11 (for delivery on December 18), from 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
