HW Fellowship House Organizing Passover Seder

Can you help contribute so elderly Jewish residents can celebrate holiday?

Hunters Woods Fellowship House is organizing a Passover Seder for about 80 elderly Russian Jewish residents and guests.

Fellowship House is organizing the Seder for 1 p.m. on March 28. Passover is the annual celebration of the Jewish people's freedom from slavery in Egypt.

A $20 donation will give one senior the chance to reconnect with his or her Jewish identity and heritage via early dinner and this beautiful tradition, organizers said.
