Hanukkah Hugs

Join Women's Philanthropy and Jewish Family Services (JFS) in spreading light by fulfilling Hanukkah wish lists for children throughout our community.

One of the longest traditions for Women’s Philanthropy, Hanukkah Hugs helps spread light by fulfilling Hanukkah wish lists. The children in our community who will receive the gifts chose each item on our lists. Your generosity ensures each child gets what they have been wishing for.
