All Fed is ramping up efforts to help Jewish Family Services in Palm Beach County meet its ongoing needs for personal care items and shelf-stable foods. 
To help them, we are now collecting these items for donation. 
There are two drop-off points (so far) in Boca Raton and Boynton Beach. 
For drop-off addresses, please contact Anne Goldberg directly
or [email protected]
TIP: This is a great way to divest of clutter while helping others!

Our Thanksgiving Blessings

From Peter FoxThis year, many of us chose not to gather with friends and family as we traditionally have done on Thanksgiving Day.
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, with the world seemingly turned on its head, can we find blessings in our separation and adversity? 
It’s easy to feel grateful when life is good, but in difficult times, gratitude is worth the effort. In a world where we make enough food to feed every person ten times over, today we will still allow over 700 million people to go to bed hungry tonight. We have a choice: either resign ourselves to the cauldron of crisis or embrace the chalice of opportunity…..

This new edition was designed to be used year after year, to match the parsha. Lovingly compiled and edited by Rabbi Shoni’s dear friend, Lisa Sirota-Weiner, this little gem of a book offers the reader glimpses of Torah and Kabbalah on a daily basis.
