MITZVAH PROJECTS

Coby Schneider is having a supply drive for the Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter. Please drop off supplies in the box located in the lobby. Some of the supplies needed include paper towels, unscented bleach, dog waste bags, non-clumping clay cat litter, cat toys, liquid laundry detergent, hand sanitizer, Brillo pads, 40-gallon garbage bags, tall kitchen garbage bags, liquid Dawn dish washing detergent, kitten food and puppy food.

Daniel Shtirmer is holding an arts and crafts donation drive to benefit the Goryeb Children's Hospital. There are two boxes by the front door for 1st-8th graders to donate arts and crafts supplies. Please note your child's grade with a Sharpie on a sticker for all donated items, because the class that brings in the most items will be treated to an ice cream social by the Shtirmer family.

Ben Pincus is raising money for Friends of The IDF Spirit Program which provides combat soldiers with FIDF recreation facilities in Israel. Purchase an FIDF bracelet for $2.00 or make a donation online at www.fidf.org. Please include a note with your online donation that it's in support of Ben's project. Thank you!
