PJ Library in Los Angeles, in partnership with Doing Good Together, is offering you the opportunity to purchase a family mitzvah kit: a package of hands-on mitzvah activities delivered to you by mail. Specially created for families with children aged 5 and containing enough supplies for multiple kids, simply add markers or crayons and your own creativity to make cards to be sent to our community’s beloved seniors! Once decorated, send the cards from inside your kit to Jewish Home for the Aging (more specific instructions will be provided upon purchase) and brighten someone’s day.

Kits are available at $10 each for the first 100 families. One kit per family.

Kits include the following:

  • Letter from PJ Library in Los Angeles
  • Instruction sheet
  • Coloring pages for kindness cards to seniors (that will go to The Los Angeles Jewish Home for the Aging — Fountainview at the Eisenberg Village in Reseda!)
  • Earth advocacy suggested activities, including a template for mailing an advocacy letter to a politician
  • Hunger challenge — a tzedakah coin activity that involves counting things in your home
  • PJ Library Jewish value cards with discussion questions
  • Thank you sign template for delivery people who come to your home
  • Origami hearts with origami paper to send to loved ones
  • Big Hearted Awards to color and give to people making a difference in the community
  • An updated “Mitzvah a Day” printable card suitable for social distancing
