Social Action Programs
Habitat for Humanity Build Sunday, July 13, 12:00 pm-4:00 pm There’s still a chance to roll up your sleeves and be part of something impactful! Join Temple Sinai and other Atlanta faith communities—including Temple Kol Emeth and Ahavath Achim Synagogue—for the second day of our Multi-faith Habitat for Humanity Build.
We’re looking for about 8 volunteers to help out in the Marietta/Austell area.
Volunteers must be at least 16 years old (parental permission required for 16-year-olds).
There is a $25 donation to participate, which supports the cost of the build. Can’t attend? You’re still welcome to donate and support this community effort!
Family Promise – Volunteer Opportunities at Homebound Ranch While we won’t be hosting families onsite this summer, there's a unique opportunity to support Family Promise through Homebound Ranch, a transitional home being used for five weeks to house families and avoid costly hotel stays—saving nearly $20,000.
Volunteers are needed for meals, supplies, move-in/move-out help, and more. Meal drop-offs are simple (between 6:00 pm–6:30 pm), and you'll receive family details in advance. Full info is in the sign up links below—thank you for being part of this vital effort!
