Not everyone can go home for the
holidays.
The intense schedules of medical stu-
dents and doctors often prohibit them
from spending time with their families
during these important times of year.
In an effort to help out-of-town
Jewish medical students and doctors
celebrate the High Holidays, the
Maimonides Society for Jewish physi-
cians is sponsoring its Holiday
Hospitality Network with Pro-Detroit.
Young doctors and medical stu-
dents will be invited into the homes
of local Jewish physicians to cele-
brate Rosh HaShana, Erev Yom
Kippur and break-the-fast.
Sponsored by the Jewish Federation
of Metropolitan Detroit's Community
Outreach and Education Department,
the Maimonides Society seeks to
strengthen bonds with the Jewish com-
munity and Israel through educational,
social and charitable activities.
The Pro-Detroit program gives
adults ages 22-35 a connection to the
local social, cultural and employment
scene. Its mission is to make Detroit a
desirable option as young people make
decisions about where to live and work.
Sept. 1 is the reservation deadline for
requesting home hospitality for the
High Holidays. For information, call
Margo Lazar, (248) 203-1494.
