Volunteers are welcome to help pack 1,500 child-friendly, healthy goody bags with the Bergen County section of the National Council of Jewish Women at Temple Emeth, 1666 Windsor Road, in Teaneck, on Tuesday, January 21, at 12:30 p.m.

The bags will be donated to the Center for Food Action. They’re given out to young school children on Friday afternoons so they can have nutritious snacks on the weekend.

Snack packs are one of the Center for Food Action’s answers to child hunger. The packs contain individual servings of fruit, cereal, and other wholesome, appealing foods.

NCJW BCS provides educational and stimulating programs and speakers throughout the year, including six general meetings and a myriad of speakers, book groups, and trips. For more information, email office@ncjwbcs.org, call (201) 385-4847, or go to ncjwbcs.org.
