The JFC Social Action Committee by Debra Lavin The Next Midnight Run is June 12. We still have space available for volunteers to come on the run! This will be the last run that we do before late next fall. B'nai Mitzvah -age young people and high school age students are encouraged to participate -- it is a very meaningful and memorable experience. At this point we do not need to have a parent for every family attending, as long as we have at least one parent from the B'nai Mitzvah class to "oversee" the kids. Please email Debbie Lavin if you want to come on the run, or to participate in any other way. Other jobs include making bag dinners to be given out on the run and COLLECTING USED MEN'S CLOTHING! We need the following items: Men’s jeans ● Men’s backpacks ● Men’s sneakers New men’s underwear ● New men’s tube socks Belts ● Hooded zipper sweatshirts ● Blankets Razors ● Shaving cream ● Deodorant Washcloths ● Toothpaste/toothbrushes We are accepting donations for the fall and winter runs next year, so if you are giving away a man’s jacket, hats or gloves, please keep us in mind. We package the toiletries in gallon-sized Ziploc bags, so donations of those are welcome as well. Cases of water are also always welcome. Financial donations in support of the midnight run help us to purchase toiletries that we are short of and new socks and underwear.
