This past Wednesday evening, November 9, over 1,000 women from Bergen, Passaic, Hudson, Morris and Essex Counties gathered at Factory 220 in Passaic to take part in this year’s NJ Great Big Challah Bake. The event kicked off a weekend of programs as part of the Shabbos Project.
Thank you to The Jewish Link for articles and advertisement space to help promote the event. In addition, area synagogues and temples, schools, organizations, businesses and corporations helped publicize and support the event, without which the event would not have been successful. In addition, over 200 teens and women volunteered their time the week of the event to help prepare ingredients and the venue for the evening’s program.
On behalf of the 2016 NJ Great Big Challah Bake Steering Committee, thanks once again to the northern New Jersey Jewish community for supporting the event.
