Midnight Run is a volunteer organization dedicated to finding a common ground between the housed and the homeless. They coordinate over 1,000 relief missions a year from churches, synagogues, and schools to distribute food, clothing and blankets and personal care items to the homeless on the streets of New York City. This late night effort creates a forum for trust, sharing, and understanding. The human exchange rather than the exchange of goods is what the Midnight Run is all about.
If you are having trouble registering, please email Melanie Appelbaum or call Temple Administrator, Matt Mansfield 914-271-4705 x121. You will receive a response within 24 business hours.
