SUMMARY:Chanukah / Hanukkah
DESCRIPTION:In 167 BCE\, the Maccabees led a band of Jews in a successful battle against the occupying Syrian-Greeks\, who had desecrated the Second Temple’s eternal light. Miraculously\, one day’s supply of oil lasted eight days\, until more could be found. The Chanukah menorah is lit for eight nights to celebrate that miracle. Among the many Hanukkah traditions\, children play dreidel and foods fried in oil are customary. \n\n\n\nPast events include YPD’s LollapaJEWza\, the Hanukkah Hugs toy drive by Women’s Philanthropy (WP). Women’s Philanthropy also hosts an annual “Pack a Bag of Love” event for Hanukkah.
