NSCI CARES:
Operation New Orleans
February 12-15, 2009
Join NSCI clergy on a service-based trip to help with the restoration of New Orleans. The trip is open to individuals and families with children 12 and over. We will be hearing from a number of speakers who will update us on the status of the restoration in New Orleans, sharing in a New Orleans Shabbat experience, and volunteering at different not-for-profit agencies to support the immediate needs of those “on the ground” and well as contribute to the ongoing rebuilding process. The trip involves a significant amount of physical activity, so potential participants should keep this in mind.
The trip has limited space, so if you are interested, you can reserve a spot with a deposit of $200 per person. Please mail your deposit to the synagogue office, attention: Rabbi Geffen. Because the trip is of a volunteer nature, it is tax deductible! The cost of the trip is approximately $950 per person. Please click here to view the itinerary.
