Interfaith Service Day, August 8th 2019, New Haven CT

Interfaith Service Day was a wonderful success. Thank you everyone for supporting the day. Twenty-two youth from Israel and Palestine, plus 125 local volunteers and staff brought our size to over 150 in attendance. (We ran out of name tags and used green dots to makes sure everyone was counted!) We completed seven community work projects. We enjoyed Fire Engine Pizza Truck! Mayor Toni Harp inspired us with her gratitude for our work. Thank you WPKN Radio Something, Channel 8, and Channel 12 news, and the New Haven Independent. Thank you everyone who volunteered and supported our efforts. Truly, “We Are All In This Together.”
