JCC Greenwich and PJ Library's Magical Hanukkah Party

This past Sunday, December 7, JCC Greenwich and PJ Library held its annual Hanukkah Party at Carmel Academy in Greenwich. Over 130 children and adults attended the event which featured a special performance by The Great Zucchini, Washington, D.C.’s #1 entertainer for young children. Activities included craft tables run by the JCC Greenwich Teen Action Committee, where children and families decorated lunch bags for Israel’s largest food rescue network, which provides lunches for over 7,500 children daily. Plus a toy drive to benefit Chai Lifeline, whose mission is to restore the light of childhood to children and families facing pediatric illness.
