Dignity Grows: Addressing Jewish Poverty in San Diego

Share

Jewish Federation of San Diego County hosted an important conversation with the topic of Jewish poverty in San Diego, featuring a panel discussion with members of the Poverty Working Group. One of the ways they are working together to reduce poverty, in particular that of hygiene poverty in the community, is by launching a local chapter of Dignity Grows. This event culminated a packing party to assemble tote bags that will go to local partners for distribution to neighbors in need.
