Volunteers for Houston flood relief needed

Volunteers are desperately needed for this Sunday to assist the United Orthodox Synagogues of Houston (UOS) with picking up, moving and storing furniture for victims of last month’s floods in the densely Jewish section of the nation’s fourth largest city.

According to UOS volunteer coordinator Jenell Garner, anyone who can help move or deliver the furniture that has been donated to the victims, should contact her immediately at 713-408-4245 or emailing her here.

An updated story on the situation in Houston will run after Shabbat over the CCJN featuring Jewish Federation of Greater Houston executive director Lee Wunsch, UOS president Max Reichenthal, Garner and JNS.org editor and Houston resident Jacob Kamaras.
