Baltimore Chesed League - Girls: Weeks Two and Three
W
here can you find 70 middle school girls engaged in Chesed on their day off? Only at the Baltimore Chesed League – Girls! Weeks two and three of the league showcased culinary, artistic, organizational, leadership, and horticulture talents. Teams were busy baking and cooking for Bikur Cholim and The Jewish Caring Network, enhancing their Shabbos meals for families in need. Additional teams came together to create multi-sensory Chanukah cards for residents of the ADI Family programs located in Israel. These cards will be hand delivered by the Director of Development for ADI who will be in Baltimore next week. If you go visit Aventura Assisted Living you will notice beautiful pots of flowers which were put together with the residents to further beautify their rooms and common areas. We even had a team assist the Harmony Challah Bake by measuring and packing up all the flour bags at Rosendorff’s Bak-
ery! And the chesed doesn’t stop there. Girls sorted and wrapped $878.50 of coins for Agudah, helped set up and facilitated Suburban Orthodox’s Cupcakes and Crafts activity, organize the siddurim at Congregation Shomrei Emunah, counted pushka coins for Ahavas Yisroel, and prepared Shabbos Mevorchim bags for elder members of Suburban. We are incredibly proud of these girls for their enthusiasm and commitment to chesed!

Photography, Pompoms, Perfect Piercing and more, Kinder Krafts, Talint Consulting, and Yehudis Katz Wigs for ensuring our girls have these experiences, Suburban Orthodox Toras Chaim for hosting our league, and to our League sponsor, Northwest Refuse.
