East Meadow Jewish Center’s Sisterhood and Young Adult Division (YAD), 1400 Prospect Avenue, invites you to the 4th annual Purim Party with a PURPOSE on Sunday, March 8th from 10am to 12pm. The Purim event is geared toward children under 5 years old. Popular performers Darlene Graham, Clowns.com/Professional Kids Entertainment, and others, are generously donating their time and talents. There will be arts & crafts, face-painting, silent auction, raffles and more. All proceeds raised will go to worthy causes identified by two local families who suffered the unimaginable loss of a child. Proceeds in memory of Adam Lefkowitz will go to a Foundation created by his family for Degos awareness and research, in addition to assisting the family directly.
Proceeds in Memory of Zachary Merlin will go to Angela's House, a local agency providing intensive services to medically fragile children so that they can remain at home or in a home-like setting. Minimum donation of $20/family can be pre-paid or paid at the door – and contributions would be greatly appreciated from those who cannot attend (Make checks payable to: East Meadow Jewish Center, Memo: ‘Purim with a Purpose’).
