Monthly Volunteer Days launch to support Jewish Tidewater

by | Nov 7, 2025 | What’s Happening

Begins Friday, November 21• 10 am – 3 pm, Sandler Family Campus

United Jewish Federation of Tidewater is launching a new initiative to bring community members together: Monthly Volunteer Days. Volunteers will gather once a month to take part in meaningful hands-on projects that benefit UJFT or partner Jewish agencies on the Sandler Family Campus.

Each month’s projects will vary, ranging from sorting food donations, to labeling books, writing thank-you notes, assembling care packages, or preparing materials for classrooms or programs. Volunteers can participate in one session or several throughout the year.

“This initiative gives community members an easy, flexible way to roll up their sleeves and help strengthen Jewish Tidewater,” says Sierra Lautman, UJFT’s senior director of Jewish Innovation. “It’s also a wonderful opportunity to connect with others while supporting the incredible work happening across our campus.”

Interested volunteers may sign up online to share their availability and will receive details about upcoming projects each month.
