* Deliver honey to all members who have experienced a bereavement in the last year (Honey for the Holidays).
- Check in with members when they are ill (Bikkur Cholim)
* Bring comforting items to those who are ill at home.
* Knit cozy wraps for those with long-term or serious illness.
* Provide a meal to support members in challenging times.
