Midnight Run 2016
The  Midnight Run is Bet Torah's way of helping the homeless in Manhattan. We travel by bus at night into the city to deliver much needed food and clothing to those who are less fortunate. The homeless look forward to our support every year. 

Our Run offers teens the opportunity to have real interaction with the homeless. The homeless look forward to the distraction from their present situations, and teens can make a difference for a night in their lives by treating them with respect and dignity. Please be a part of this amazing event.
Saturday, December 3
5:35 p.m. - 3:00 a.m.
Supplies
We need donations to make this event a success. Please bring the following, by grade, so that we have enough of everything.

Nursery School: Juice Boxes

Kindergarten and Aleph: Hot paper cups, spoons (soup spoons prefered), napkins, and individual boxes of raisins
