Did You Know? Calgary Jewish Federation is committed to building meaningful community connection at every stage of life. Shalom Baby helps us do that for our youngest community members and their families. Through Shalom Baby, we welcome every new baby with a free community gift, ensuring families feel embraced from the very beginning. We also offer a weekly program for babies under two years, every Wednesday at 12:30pm at the Paperny Family JCC. This is a space to begin building friendships for both parents and babies and share the joys and oys of early parenthood. If your family has recently welcomed a new baby, or if you know someone who has, please contact Sydney Truax, so we can ensure every new community member feels welcomed into Jewish Calgary.
