Shavuot

Book Swap

Bring books to exchange and rehome throughout the holiday!

Donate Items

A child will sleep safely. Stay warm in the cold Chicago winters. Explore the city in their stroller and the world in the pages of a book. A mom will know that baby is clean and dry and has what they need. You can find purpose for your spare baby essentials and a second life for your gently used baby clothing and items by donating your extras to Share Our Spare. 

Donation bags available at Anshe Emet starting 5/17

Donation Drop Off 6/1 – 6/5
