International Rescue Committee - COVID-19 Emergency Hygiene Kits
The IRC helps people whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster, to survive, recover, and regain control of their future. Many new mothers are now displaced and living in overcrowded camps where social distancing is nearly impossible. With your help, these mothers can protect themselves and their children from COVID-19 with Emergency Hygiene Kits. These packages include: soap, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, wipes, diapers, powder, rash cream, maternity pads and more. Each hygiene kit is $45. Donate here and Beth El will purchase all of the kits together. See more information about the International Rescue Committee.

Face Mask Drive
Shelters for women and children are in need of reusable fabric masks to distribute to their communities. If you can sew and are interested in participating in this project, please send masks to Congregation Beth El, attn: Tikkun Committee, and we will distribute them as they come in. See sewing pattern here.

Adopt UC San Diego Hospital Staff
As a community, we will show our gratitude to and support of healthcare professionals who are working tirelessly to care for patients and prevent the spread of COVID-19. You can help by sending encouraging letters or helping to send food to those working late evenings and missing dinners with their family. Please send letters and notes of appreciation to Congregation Beth El and we will deliver them as we send dinners. Donate here to send dinners to hospital staff.
