Jewish Family Service Association (JFSA) of Cleveland just completed its 16th Annual Karen Newborn Mitzvah Day, spreading companionship, holiday care packages, and kindness to over 125 older adults during the Jewish High Holy Days.

What started in 2010 with deliveries to 40 seniors has grown into a beloved tradition powered by board members, volunteers, and YouthAbility ambassadors—all coming together to organize and deliver essential items and fresh flowers, bringing warmth and dignity to our senior community.

“A simple act of kindness can have an enormous impact,” said this year's organizer and former JFSA Board Chair, Bill Wortzman.

Event founder and former JFSA Board Chair, Karen Newborn added, “Seeing new and longtime volunteers side by side ensures this legacy of kindness continues.”

Thank you to everyone who gave their time and heart to make this year’s Mitzvah Day unforgettable!
