We are off to a great start supporting Family Promise, a group of faith communities/congregations and non-profit organizations that provide temporary housing to unhoused families as they transition to permanent housing. Women’s Network (WNAY) collected hundreds of toiletries and cleaning supplies and delivered them to Family Promise. Many of you are excited to be continuing this mitzvah project by helping with our host week. This week is one week later than usual: December 28, 2025, to January 4, 2026. We hope that this later date means that more of our volunteers will be in town and able to take a volunteer shift.
You and your family can sign up at on our SignUp Genius link emailed with more detailed information by Executive Director Judy Berkely.
Serve and eat dinner with our guests
Spend the night at the synagogue
Donate food (only the specific Kosher food listed)
Financial support
Gifts for our guests will be added to the signup once we receive the wish list from Family Promise.
And if you would like to plan an activity for our guests – gingerbread house making, cookie decorating, a movie or game night, please let us know! The week before our guests arrive, we will send all volunteers an email confirming your availability and sharing information about the families we will be hosting.
For more information, please contact Annette Doherty.
