Hanukkah Mitzvot Day - 9 December 2018

MITZVOT HANUKAH.jpg

For Beth Shalom’s Mitzvot Day (9 December 2018), we paid a happy Hanukkah visit to the Residenza Arzaga, the senior home for Milan's Jewish community. 
We brought Hanukkah cards that our kids made, sufganiyot and candies.
And that all brought wonderful smiles to the residents' faces.

Thanks to everyone in the Beth Shalom community for their generous support.

Soup Shabbat - TZEDAKA' - Centro Sant'Antonio, Milano

On 17 November, Beth Shalom hosted a very successful “Soup Shabbat” event to collect tzedakah from the congregation for Centro Sant’Antonio (CSA).

Thanks to the tireless efforts of Frate Carlo, this center provides basic services to those in need, such as warm meals, showers, and clothing.

Our very generous contribution of 200 euros will be used by Frate Carlo to buy sleeping bags to help the homeless stay warm this winter.

CSA is also looking for donations of gently used sleeping bags.

Donate them to a good cause!

Beth Shalom’s Soup Shabbat is one example of our continued commitment to expressing our Jewish faith through the Mitzvah of Tikkun Olam (Repairing the world). 

Thanks to everyone in the Beth Shalom community for their generous support.
