Regional Communities Celebrate Purim

One of Jewish Federation’s 2020 Strategic Priorities is to ensure that Jewish programs and services are accessible no matter where you may live.

With half of the local Jewish population living outside Vancouver, Jewish Federation has stepped up its efforts to engage young families in the regional communities. Our Connect Me In program celebrates holidays in the regional communities in ways that are both fun and educational for children and parents alike.

With March just around the corner, our community outreach workers, Gabby Switzer and Hannah Yerington, are planning a number of Purim celebrations across the Lower Mainland.
