Food Drive As part of their March Mitzvah Madness, Jewish Federation of Nothern New Jersey is sponsoring a community-wide mega food drive. Over 900,000 people in the state of New Jersey rely on food banks, and our northern New Jersey Jewish community is not exempt from the issue of hunger. Items most needed in the month of March include baby food, beans, canned fish & meat, canned fruits and vegetables, formula, peanut butter, jelly, pasta rice, and shelf-stable milk.
If you are joining us for megillah reading, we encourage you to bring a box of pasta, use it as a groger, and then drop if off in the box in the front entrance that will be designated for the drive. (Other foods for the drive may be placed in the box as well.) Donations before and after Purim may be dropped off on the back porch of the Passner home until March 25th.

Register to Vote Less than 9% of voters 18-35 in Teaneck vote regularly. We can do better and register to vote-by-mail. Teach NJ unites New Jersey’s Jewish community by advocating on behalf of day schools and yeshivas. We have launched a nonpartisan civic engagement pilot program to encourage Teaneck residents to vote. The more we vote, the more elected officials listen to what’s important to us.
