Please donate… \n\nHats (all genders\, children\, babies)\nScarves\nWinter coats and snowsuits\nBoots (all genders\, children\, babies)\nGloves/Mittens\n\n…to us here at Holy Blossom Temple. You can place them directly into the Janis Rotman Tzedakah Centre\, which is found on your left-hand side when you enter the building through our main Ava Rd. entrance. Together\, we can perform a mitzvah of great importance\, helping those in our community stay warm throughout the winter. Families need our help! \nWhether they be clients of Ve’ahavta\, guests of Out of the Cold\, or newcomers through JIAS\, HBT has always been a place that holds hachnasat orchim\, the mitzvah of caring for the stranger\, as a sacred value. \nHere’s what to do with your donations: \n\nPlease put only clean and undamaged clothing in a bag\nPrint out the form\, check it\, and staple or tape it to the bag (this is very helpful for sorting).

SUMMARY:Community Dinner: Out of the Cold
DESCRIPTION:Community Dinner: Out of the Cold\nThursdays\, 5:30 pm \nFor more than two decades\, Holy Blossom Temple has generously opened its doors to the Out of the Cold Program (OOTC) during five winter months while providing nutritious meals and shelter to thousands of adults who are homeless\, isolated\, or facing food insecurity. Volunteers prepare warm meals\, serve our guests with dignity\, provide uplifting and meaningful programming\, and provide visitors with vital supplies during the harsh winter months. \nThis year\, 2025-26\, we will open our doors on November 6 at 5:30 pm. It will run for 5 months from Thursday\, November 6\, to the last Thursday of March (March 26) from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm \nLearn more about Out of the Cold at Holy Blossom here! \nReturning\, veteran\, and new volunteers are all welcome! Please contact our volunteer coordinator\, Tabitha Grove (ootc@holyblossom.org)\, to secure your volunteer date and role. We are always looking for new volunteers to greet and welcome\, serve\, bake at home\, help transport food\, and help us set up and break down the Phillip Smith Congregational Hall. \n  \nPlease note that\, due to security issues and ongoing building renewal\, the Phillip & Fannie Smith Congregational Hall is not accessible for people with disabilities during the operating hours of this program. Due to current limitations\, our guests cannot sleep over.
