San Mateo Hanukkah Mitzvah Makers

Are you looking for a meaningful way to celebrate Hanukkah with your kids that’s both fun and full of purpose?

Join Mitzvah Makers for a joyful and heartfelt mitzvah as we fill Hanukkah gift bags for our community! 🕎✨

During this season of light, we bring warmth and brightness to JFCS clients and community members so they can celebrate the holiday with traditional Hanukkah treats and thoughtful gifts.

Join other Jewish families for a hands-on family mitzvah project—filling Hanukkah bags with goodies, candles, and notes of love and hope for families and seniors across the Bay Area. It’s a wonderful way to teach children the Jewish value of Gemilut Chasadim (acts of loving-kindness), while showing them how small acts can help bring light to others and strengthen our caring Jewish community. Dinner and sufganiyot (traditional jelly donuts!) provided!

Perfect for intergenerational families!

This event will take place at our offices in San Mateo.

Please complete the registration form and list all family members planning to attend.

Looking forward to celebrating the Festival of Lights together!
