This week, the enthusiastic teens met late Monday afternoon to cook for MESH (to be delivered Tuesday to The Office). Captain Jordan, with Vicky, Caitlin, Olivia, Audrey and Sofia from Montclair High, joined Chef Fern to cook a hearty meal for fifty guests.
The Guest Bag included: Hot and Sweet Meatballs, Rice, Moroccan Carrot Salad, Cookie, Protein Bar., Tangerine, Water
Alex Kent joined Fern on Tuesday to heat the meatballs and rice, and pack the final tray to put into the guests’ bags. Lynne Kurzweil picked up the bags and delivered them to The Office.
Thank you to everyone for this Mitzvah.
Cheers,
Fern

Shomrei provides 50 meals to MESH on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of each month. We need volunteers to help prepare and pack the food.
For those interested in volunteering who are not available on Tuesday afternoons, we are brainstorming different ways to make it work. Let us know what would work for you.
Additionally, each Monday afternoon we deliver any usable food leftover from kiddish to MESH.
Volunteer at the MESH Site
Volunteers are also welcome to help serve food 6 nights a week, Monday through Saturday, 4:30-6:30 pm at the MESH site, 619 Bloomfield Ave, Montclair.
