Peninsula JCC Justice Garden

JUSTICE GARDEN (GAN TZEDEK)

One in four individuals in our community will be at risk of hunger—and our PJCC

We will also provide social action, learning activities, educational workshops,
gardening instruction, and much more. By practicing the Jewish value of repairing
the world, tikkun olam, we will literally sow the seeds of justice for people in need.
