CQJCC brings neighbors together to help neighbors.  Volunteers bring hope and cheer to those who feel forgotten.

 As CQJCC enters 2023, we reflect on our many activities over the last year.  True to our mission, we looked out for our vulnerable neighbors with love.

 

In 2022 we distributed 100 gift packages for each of the following holidays:

  • Tu Beshvat
  • Purim
  • Shavuot
  • Rosh Hashanah
  • Thanksgiving
  • Chanukah
Please partner with us in our important work touching vulnerable neighbors in meaningful ways!
Thanks,
Mushky Mendelson
