COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENTS TeaneckShuls annual fundraiser - this year’s recipient of our online community’s generosity is….KosherTroops! As many of you may know, TeaneckShuls runs this annual fundraiser, raising over $220,000 in the past 13 years for various charities. This year we turn our attention to the work of this wonderful organization, KosherTroops, which is supporting Jewish women & men who are serving in the armed forces of the United States. This year an American Jewish soldier spent Rosh Hashana in Qatar, lit a Chanukah Menorah in Kuwait, received Mishloach Manot in Africa, and had a Pesach Seder in Afghanistan. KosherTroops provides ongoing support and care packages to Jewish American troops in all branches of the military, both deployed as well as stateside. These packages strengthen the spirit and resolve of our troops and show appreciation and thanks for their sacrifice and commitment to protecting our freedom. The packages they send include items that will help them celebrate the Jewish holidays and Shabbat so that they feel connected to the Jewish community while away. In 2013, over 2500 holiday packages and nearly 400 Shabbat packages were sent to over 3200 troops. Since 2008, over 10,000 packages have been sent to grateful service members throughout the world. Please join in this mitzvah by supporting an American soldier. KosherTroops is run solely by volunteers and your donation will be used entirely to ship packages and buy food for our troops. In addition to our usual request for monetary donations, we are asking for children to submit cards, drawings, etc. which we can send on to the troops, as well. Show the troops some TeaneckShuls love!! We know there are many opportunities to donate to a myriad of causes & we only ask that you consider a tax deductible donation of any amount in honor of TeaneckShuls & the important role it plays in our community.
