Help BAG
HUNGER... with BSO USY
At the entrance to the
synagogue, you will find large paper grocery bags. BSO USY asks that you

you would otherwise eat on Yom Kippur, bring them in by
Sukkot. All items collected will be donated to
Capital Area Food Bank, a nonprofit organization helping people for over
21 years.
Please help make BSO USY's Bag
Hunger campaign a success! If you have any questions, please contact Jacob
Komisar, BSO Youth Director, at 301-774-0879, or at BSOYouth@bnaishalomofolney.org
