Hanukkah Gift Card Drive

Thursday, October 13, 2022

The New Reform Temple can make a difference in other people’s lives with the simple act of giving a gift card. Partnering with Jewish Family Services, we have been given the opportunity to participate in their Hanukkah gift card drive.

Gift cards allow families to choose correct sizes and styles, shop for groceries, or surprise a family member.

From now – November 25, you may purchase gift cards from Target or Walmart in increments of $25 only please. 

 We can receive your Hanukkah gift card by:
-Mailing to NRT at (7100 Main Street, KCMO 64114), by November 21.
-Religious School families can bring them to Shelley Hedrick on Sundays.

Jewish Family Services (JFS) will be receiving them by November 28.

Thank you for making this a beautiful holiday for so many!
