Perla recently sent me an article and asked me to post it to our Vassar Temple blog. Like Perla, I found Rabbi Schuck words and thoughts very interesting, to say the least. It gave me pause!
It is written by David Schuck who is the rabbi of the Pelham Jewish Center in Pelham Manor, NY. He is also an adjunct lecturer in the Professional and Pastoral Skills Department of the Rabbinical School at the Jewish Theological Seminary. David was a participant on an AJWS Rabbinic Delegation service learning trip to Ghana, and was a Jewish Service Corps educator in Mumbai, India, through the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee.
Many of Vassar Temple’s fund raising and charitable efforts relate to hunger. E.g. Crop Walk, Lunch Box, Can Jam, etc.. When it comes to world hunger, Rabbi Schuck gives us food for thought!
