Preparing for Sukkos
TABLE OF CONTENTS:
FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Dear Friends,
With the beginning of Elul last week, our footsteps lead us rapidly toward the high holidays!
For the fourth year, Canfei Nesharim is appreciating the importance of water through our annual Sukkos project, True Joy Through Water. Divrei Torah, program suggestions, stickers and Sukkah decorations are currently available on our website, and great more resources are coming soon! Now is the time to speak to your rabbi or programming coordinators about organizing an environmental program for Sukkos! Check out our great resources today, and stay tuned for more information coming soon. In honor of Sukkot, our newsletter this month focuses on the theme of water.
Don't forget to help Canfei Nesharim evaluate our ongoing and future programs in our fifth annual Organizational Survey. The first fifty people to complete the survey will receive a free set of eco-reminder stickers for your home. And, this year several lucky respondents will receive free Torah-environment goodies in our raffle!
Fill out the survey today!
The survey should take about 10 minutes, and will be accessible online until September 14, 2009.
Wishing you a joyous and meaningful month of Elul!
Evonne Marzouk
Executive Director
