What a MITZVAH !!
  The 11th annual Mitzvah Day of the Dutchess County Jewish community drew volunteers from Beacon to Rhinebeck, from the Hudson to Pleasant Valley, to fulfill the Jewish obligation to heal the world. Over 200 volunteers in 19 different sites defied the spring showers and helped clean a creek, collect money for Darfur refugees, make needed repairs at the JCCDC, prepare mailings for non profits, packed cereal boxes for donation to a food pantry and so much more!!!. In the next few days, check our online photo album of the day at http://www.jewishdutchess.org
