The following Davis-based program may be of particular interest:
Caregivers' Support Group at CBH: spouses, family members and friends who are acting as caregivers for a loved one are invited to participate.

The current morning session meets twice a month through early May, 10:00 - 11:30 a.m. An evening session may begin again this Fall. Drop-ins are welcome at $10 per session with advance notice.

families have put the money that they would have spent on B'nei Mitzvah gifts to one another into a tzedakah fund. They have made a group decision to review proposals from non-profits aimed at addressing hunger, and then award their tzedakah fund to the organizations that they feel are most deserving. In order to increase the impact of their efforts, the students held bake sales last weekend, both at CBH and elsewhere in Davis, to raise additional funds. Hungry to help? You can sweeten their mitzvah by supporting their bake sales this weekend. One is planned at Nugget Fields THIS SATURDAY, 11:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. (weather permitting), and the location for THIS SUNDAY will be announced at Sunday School services.
