Working Together
The Riggs family – Rebecca and Scott, with kids Lucas, 11, Elise, 9, and Adelaide, 6 – has been volunteering with Yad Ezra since the kids were little. They’re not Jewish, but working with the organization has given them a respect for the Jewish faith and tradition, Rebecca says.
Her kids have also gained the understanding that although people have differences and different beliefs, they can all work together to help irradicate food scarcity.
Now it’s your turn. Go make the world a better place!
Kids Can Help!
Lucas, 11, likes doing something to help the world. His favorite food to harvest is tomatoes. “We volunteer in the gardens,” he says. “We go there on Sundays and help plant, harvest and do things like that. I like helping gardening, and I also like all the people who are there.”
Kids can volunteer in Yad Ezra’s Giving Gardens with their families and give tzedakah. Volunteer Orly Morganstein gives money to Yad Ezra at Hillel Day School.
