Jewish Muslim Day of Service was a success!

January 5, 2016 By Jason Baker

Annual Jewish and Muslim Day of Service Event
December 25, 2015

 
Over 40 volunteers of diverse faiths, nationalities and ages participated in our agency’s Jewish and Muslim Day of Service to provide deliveries of gifts and a special lunch to 100 needy senior clients. The project involved volunteers assembling and organizing tote bags by delivery routes during Christmas week. On December 25, additional volunteers gathered to stuff the totes with greeting cards, pack lunch items and make deliveries to households located throughout the city and county.  
 
Day of Service 1
The event was notable for the wonderful sunny (and dry!) weather and even more so for the dedicated, spirited crew of volunteers who set out to make the day special for our Bosnian, Bhutanese, Russian, African, Vietnamese, Afghan, Iraqi, Korean, Albanian, Uzbeki and American seniors. 

A special thanks also goes to: Dot Foods for 100 tote bags filled with nonperishable food and household items; Missouri Dept. of Corrections Restorative Justice Reentry participants for 100 beautiful hand-made quilts; Deb Genovese’s Webster Groves High School art classes for fringe blankets; Stitches for Life for providing 100 handmade scarves; Living World UMC quilting groups for providing comforters; and Carole Splater of Charity Sharity for support that enabled the donations of all quilts, blankets and scarves.

Bilingual International has secured a federal grant award and will be rolling out a new program for recent Afghan evacuees in St. Louis. The Services to Afghan Survivors Impacted by Combat (SASIC) program will provide supportive case management and counseling for families impacted by war-related trauma. The 3-year, $1.8 million award will fund an Afghan-led and -staffed team of bilingual case managers with attached therapists and contracted psychiatry services. We are also proud to be working with Welcome Neighbor STL and the Islamic Foundation of Greater St. Louis to provide community supports and input. Details in the linked article! ... See MoreSee Less
