LJWB celebrated Purim with its extravaganza while the CTeens raised vital funds for the organisation.
Leeds Jewish Welfare Board (LJWB) was recently thrilled to welcome back the incredible CTeens, a group of enthusiastic young volunteers who have been making a real impact at the Pay As You Feel Café. Their contributions have been invaluable, from serving food and engaging with customers to even tackling the washing up with boundless energy. These dedicated teens truly embody the spirit of giving and community service.
Their legendary car wash event was another resounding success, with 25 cars cleaned and over £140 raised towards important community projects at LJWB, helping to ensure that these services can continue.
In addition to the success of the CTeens, LJWB recently hosted a spectacular Purim party at the MAZCC, which was a true celebration of joy and togetherness.
Over 90 guests attended the event, dressed in a fantastic array of costumes, from rockstars to film icons, creating an electric atmosphere of fun and laughter, with live music and a hamantaschen tea.
A special mention goes to Rabbi Sufrin for his insightful and entertaining reflections on the meaning of Purim, which added depth to the celebration.
