The Northeast Caravan 4 Katrina in both Riveredge, NJ and Boston, MA set a breaking record for the number of Jewish teens taking part in community service projects. Over 125 teenagers in Riveredge shared their strength as they packed and loaded 50 full boxes of food, toys, and books onto a truck bound for Mississippi. Meanwhile, nearly 100 New England Judaeans danced in the streets of Boston with each packed box.
Each site was honored to host special guests. Boston featured speaker Yossi Abramowitz, CEO of JFL media.com/Jewish Family & Life, Co- Publisher of JVIBE, Publisher of socialaction.com, and former Judaean. Riveredge featured Michael Wildes, Mayor of Englewood, NJ. Both events concluded with the Tfillah Haderech, or traveler's prayer. These two events marked the first of 8 stops on the Northeast Caravan4Katrina journey.
