1 B NAI MITZVAH PROGRAM GUIDE
2 A LITTLE ABOUT MAZON Founded in 1985, MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger is dedicated to preventing and alleviating hunger among people of all faiths and backgrounds. MAZON means food or sustenance in Hebrew. MAZON practices two of the most important Jewish ideals. We practice tzedakah by supporting the organizations that are feeding hungry people today, and tikkun olam by working to prevent hunger in the future. Our important work would not be possible without your support.
3 One day, God, may it be Your will that we live in a world perfected, in which food comes to the hungry as from heaven, and water will flow to the thirsty as a stream. But in the meantime, while the world is filled with hunger, empower us to stand on Your behalf and fulfill the words of Your prophet: to all who are thirsty bring water, and greet those who wander with food. Bless us that we should sustain the hungry. Written by Rabbi Scott Perlo Introduction to MAZON

7 THE FUN STUFF Paper plate campaign: Invite your friends and family to write letters on paper plates that express your concerns about hunger. Send these plates to your congressperson. Your advocacy for this important issue will deem you a valuable partner in the fight to end hunger. Visual representation: Plan an event to showcase what hunger looks like to you through art, photographs, videos, poems etc. Charge admission for the event and donate the proceeds to MAZON. Your creativity will help inform others on the issue of hunger and share the facts in a new and unique way! Meaningful storytelling: Reflect on the volunteer experiences you may have or the observations you have made about hunger. Then write a descriptive story about these experiences and facts and turn your story into a book. Your storytelling will bring new meaning to your experiences as well as inspire others too! Decorate a plate or bowl: Decorate a plate or bowl in honor of the millions of empty plates around the country. Put your work on display at your Simcha to bring awareness to the issue and ask your guests to donate money to help symbolically put food on the empty dishes. Your artistic touch will educate others on the issue of hunger!
8 MORE OF THE FUN STUFF Creative expression: Whether you are comfortable on-screen or behind the scenes, create a video to share important facts about hunger and why you care about the issue. Send this video electronically to your guests and share it on Facebook, Twitter and your event website. We can t wait to see your creativity! Family food stamp challenge: Research SNAP (food stamps) to learn more how much money an average family of your size would receive if you qualified for food stamps. Plan with your family to eat on a food stamp budget for one week. Keep notes of your thoughts and feelings each day of the challenge and share them with others to help them understand the struggle. Fundraising: Coordinate an event or activity to raise money for MAZON.
