IN THE NEWS: Passover Project Serves Seniors

Published: Tuesday, April 8, 2014

Several seniors will have a festive Passover holiday this year, thanks in part to the efforts of volunteers from the Addison Reserve Passover Mitzvah Project. For the ninth year in a row, Addison Reserve families have participated in a Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County "Adopt-a-Project," which provides food for Passover to those in need in the Boca/Delray area. This year, nearly 200 Addison families raised over $21,000 to purchase food. On March 25, more than 45 volunteers gathered at the new Jacobson Family Food Pantry at Jewish Family Service facility in Delray Beach to package 475 bags of Passover groceries for distribution by JFS.

IN THE NEWS: Seder smiles

Published: Tuesday, April 8, 2014

Eva Kolatka, 96, who lives in Century Village in Boca Raton, still remembers when she used to host Passover seders for 20 to 30 people. As she is no longer able to host a big family seder, and as she has very little family in Florida, Kolatka was faced with not being able to celebrate the Passover holiday at all this year. Instead, Kolatka decided to join 220 other clients of the Ruth & Norman Rales Jewish Family Services (JFS) at its Pre-Passover Model Seder, held at B'nai Torah Congregation in Boca Raton on April 1.
