Volunteers Feted

pated in the Candle Program will be

Kosher Catering and his staff
located at
Adat Shalom Synagogue
wish our entire community
a happy, healthy
and
sweet New Year!
Since Yad Ezra's inception in 1990, vol-
unteers have enabled the Berkley-based
kosher food pantry to provide hundreds
of thousands of pounds yearly to the
needy in the community. As a way of
acknowledging the bar/bat mitzvah vol-
unteers who have given their time and
energy to Yad Ezra's mission in the last
year, the students are being invited to
attend the dinner and be recognized by
the organization's leadership. A reduced
price of $100 (total) for the student and
parents to attend the dinner has been
arranged.
Contact Lea Luger, (248) 548-3663, or
e-mail her at lea@yadezra.org for infor-
mation.
