Do you need an occasional babysitter? Someone to rake leaves or shovel snow? An extra set of hands to move boxes or furniture? A seamstress to alter clothing or create decorative pillows? Someone to help set up for, and clean up after, a dinner or party for family or friends?
All of those services (and more) can be provided by the people that Shomrei’s Refugee Assistance Group has been assisting in recent years. It can be a win-win situation for all involved: you get the services you need, and you do a mitzvah by providing crucial additional income to the refugee families.
If you are interested, please contact me (Andy Silver, email hidden; JavaScript is required). I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you.
Regards,
Andy
About the Refugee Assistance Group
In early 2017, Nick Levitin and Andy Silver started Shomrei’s Refugee Assistance Group in reaction to the massive influx of Syrian refugees to our area. The response from our group was and continues to be, overwhelming, enabling us to assist refugees from a wide variety of countries. However, the needs, too, are overwhelming; wars, natural disasters, and government repression and persecution continue to cause mass worldwide migrations of people, many seeking refuge in our region.
If you are interested in joining, or if you want more information, or would just like to be on our email list for updates about our activities, please contact one of the co-heads of our group:
