Excess Access Share the Wealth is a program (begun in 2017) that involves student volunteers to package excess food from Shabbat or Holidays at Shabbos House (as available) in a dignified way to deliver to and share with local seniors who’d appreciate it, or with those of limited income or food preparation ability.
This is a win-win situation for all involved. In addition to benefitting others, this engages college students in volunteerism, intergenerational interaction and increased sensitivity to that which we often take for granted.
This program was initiated and is supported by the Bnai Brith Gideon Foundation.
