This inclusive, indoor event for children focuses on the value of giving Tzedakah. Families will have the opportunity to have a special gallery tour to see examples of Tzedakah boxes, hear stories about the importance of Tzedakah, and make their own box to take home. Our jkidaccess team will provide support for children who need accommodations to participate.

Accommodations: Thanks to a generous grant from the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia, we are able to provide accommodations for any child or family member with a disability to attend jkidphilly events. If you need an accommodation such as an ASL interpreter, a sensory toolbox, or even behavior support for your child, or if you have questions about the accessibility of any program or venue, please note so on our form or contact us. In most cases, our staff will need two weeks’ notice to provide accommodations, but we will do our best to meet your needs on any timeframe.
