Basalt Thrift Store
I volunteer at Basalt Thrift about once a week. I help with display and making sure things are in chip chop condition for the guests. In return I am surrounded with great people and the feeling of knowing what I am doing is positively impacting the universe.
Camp Shutaf
Shutaf – teaching inclusion and acceptance within a supportive atmosphere.
While living in Israel, my program wanted to decide on a organization to do community service for and to help raise money. We ended up choosing Camp Shutaf. Over the course of a couple months we raised money, then at the end we went on a walk with the kids and threw them a carnival filled with fun activities for the kids. Shutaf, for children and teens with special needs is committed to inclusion-based programming that answers the social, educational and vocational needs of our community. They believe in quality services for all, regardless of disability, financial limitations and religious differences. This program creates new opportunities for children and teens – with and without disabilities – to come together and learn important Jewish values of acceptance and understanding.
