Final of DARST (Disaster Area Relief Service Trips) 2017-18 Series

For teens only (Grades 8-12), of all faiths!

As a result of Hurricane Harvey's massive devastation of Houston, Texas, J-Teen Leadership, through a generous grant from UJA-Federation's Time for Good volunteer initiative, will be leading a service trip to Houston to directly help the victims of the storm.

We will learn about the Jewish community, and Houston at large, spend Shabbat together, meet local teens and work with Jewish Federation of Greater Houston, Houston Food Bank, Brookdale Galleria Senior Living, Harvey Housing Recovery, and Sewa International to help families in desperate need.

Trip cost: $890. Various scholarships available! No one will be turned away because of financial need! Cost includes airfare, transportation, hotel and food. $360 non-refundable deposit required. Call (914) 328-8788 or email Guy Felixbrodt, Executive Director, for more information.

Service Trip Chairs: Dina Sokol and Julia Zimmerman

REGISTER NOW! Space is limited and dependent on airline tickets availability.

Letters to school officials will be provided by the Executive Director regarding absences on Friday, April 20 and Monday, April 23.

We hope you will join us on this great opportunity to give back through meaningful service.
