By Rabbi James Mirel, Co-chair, Seattle MAZON benefit, Seattle
Thank you to the JTNews for co-sponsoring the annual MAZON Hanukkah benefit.
Your beautiful ad and promotional material enabled us to fill the room to capacity and to raise over $14,000 for MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger. Thanks also to Matzoh Momma catering for generously providing the delicious meal and to all who came and contributed. It was also gratifying to welcome several Washington State non-profits which receive MAZON funding, including Jewish Family Service. If you have not made a contribution, please visit the Web site www.mazon.org and specify that you are adding to the Seattle Hanukkah benefit.
