Shearith continues to help the Marom-Kampala Jewish Community in Uganda. Currently, we’re raising money to help 18 students in the community who can’t go to school in-person because of Covid. These students need the proper supplies so they can learn at home, including laptops, headsets, a personal wi-fi connection, writing notebooks, and other learning materials.
Please donate HERE.
Your warm smile and best wishes for a refuah shelayma, a complete and speedy recovery, to fellow congregants who are in the hospital is a tremendous comfort and a big mitzvah! Your friendly visit, even if it’s short, helps supplement visits from our clergy.
If you, a loved one or friend is in the hospital and would like visitors, please let us know. Contact Theresa Hurt.
