A Community Cooking Event. Join us in the JCC kitchen to prepare a warm, nourishing meal for our unhoused neighbors. We’ll be cooking chili and cornbread for dinner and making sandwiches for Monday lunch. No cooking experience required - just bring a helping heart! Volunteers will help with: chopping, stirring, sandwich assembly, portioning meals, and clean-up. All ingredients will be provided.

Together with Congregation Olam Tikvah, we will support our neighbors in need. All volunteer shifts will be held at Bethlehem Lutheran Church. Shift options:
6:00–8:00 AM Breakfast Serve (Monday, January 12 and Wednesday, January 14): Assist church staff in serving a morning meal to our unhoused neighbors. Tasks include setting up, plating, and light clean-up.

4:00–5:00 PM Dessert Drop-Off (Monday, January 12 and Wednesday, January 14): Deliver baked desserts for approximately 15 people to the church. These may be homemade or purchased (cookies, brownies, cupcakes, etc.)

5:00–7:30 PM Dinner Service & Clean-Up (Monday, January 12 and Wednesday, January 14): Join us for an impactful evening of hands-on service in the church. Volunteers will assist with setting up dinner, plating and serving hot meals, refilling beverages, and light clean-up afterward.
