Miami Beach, FL - The
Jewish and Haitian communities will mingle this Friday night at the first ever
Haitian Shabbat. This shabbat will be a
fundraising dinner, featuring kosher Haitian food, meant to bring the two
communities together so that the Jewish community can learn about how people in
Haiti are living since the 2010 earthquake.
The Haitian Shabbat will be held at the Temple Beth Shmuel Cuban Hebrew
Congregation. The dinner is open to the community and the sponsor, Nuestros
Pequeños Hermanos, suggests a $35 minimum donation. NPH is an organization that aims to improve
the lives of orphaned, abandoned and poor children in Latin America and the
Caribbean. Money raised from the dinner will support NPH’s homes, schools, and
community outreach programs in Haiti. www.fundraisingweb.org
