Midnight Run with the BJ Teens
The BJ Teen Executive Board is excited to announce our upcoming Midnight Run on February 4! We’ll have dinner and havdalah, a short learning session, and then we’ll pack up our cars with donations. Then, we will head out in cars to make stops throughout the city to give out the supplies to those who need it.
Midnight Run is a volunteer organization based in New York City that is dedicated to finding common ground between the housed and the houseless. Midnight Run is one of many groups that participate in this amazing mitzvah of distributing food, clothing, blankets, and personal care items to the houseless community of New York City.
We need your help with donations! This month we are asking you to purchase items from our Amazon wish list.
In addition, any donations, including adult-sized t-shirts, sweaters/long-sleeve shirts, sweatshirts, pants, coats, and blankets are appreciated. Please do not donate children’s clothing, swimsuits, or any dirty/used items.
Donations will be collected Tuesday, January 31, and Thursday, February 2, from 4:00-6:00 PM at the entrance of the BJ Community House on 89th Street. There will be a large, clearly marked box where you can drop off your items.
