epair the World Detroit PeerCorps Teens had a mean-
ingful Elu V’ Elu, a learning session where they talked 
about racial justice at the intersection of food security 
through the lens and value of Kavod Habriyot, preciousness of 
each human. 
The event took place at Yad Ezra, the Jewish food pantry. 
After the learning session, attendees “turned skills into ser-
vice” by finding out how to make body butter to be distributed 
to neighbors in Detroit to protect their skin from the harsh 
weather. They also packed 400 tea bags and 200 tea kits for Yad 
Ezra, to be distributed in the pantry. 
Attendees toured Yad Ezra’s “Giving Gardens” greenhouse 
and are excited to return to support a food distribution pro-
gram closer to Passover.
