SUMMARY:Blood Drive
DESCRIPTION:Aliyah Rotman was an incredible kid. She smiled brightly\, laughed generously and loved sparkly unicorn clothes. Above all\, Aliyah was unfailingly kind and giving. On the day Aliyah arrived at the Sick Kids ER\, she required 7 units of blood as the amazing team tried to save her life. Reflecting on that\, we are so grateful for the generosity of those who gave blood in the weeks and months leading up to March 7th 2022. Their donations gave us more time with Aliyah. Their donations allowed Aliyah to be an organ donor\, to free 2 from dialysis and give a little boy a new heart.In Aliyah’s name and honour we hope to have our community join Aliyah’s A-Team. As Aliyah would say\, to give many others the opportunity to live their one life and live it good. \nTo Register \n\nSign in or create an account by visiting blood.ca/en\nor use the GiveBlood app.\nSelect ‘Partners’ from the menu\, then ‘Join an existing team’\nSearch for: Aliyah’s A Team

SUMMARY:Social Justice Scholar-in-Residence D'var Torah: Dr. Gary Bloch
DESCRIPTION:On Being Right and Wrong at the Same Time: An Exploration of the Hard Work of Social Justice\nwith Dr. Gary Bloch\nSaturday\, November 30 | 10 a.m. \nProgressive Jewish communities treat social improvement as a core element of their self-conception and community action. Immersion in the work of social justice\, however\, reveals it to be rife with uncertainty\, with contradiction\, and with internal and external struggle. Parashat Toldot’s story of Jacob and Esau offers a powerful opportunity to explore the pain and the power of seeing our actions as simultaneously right and wrong\, and of not knowing who is more right and who is more wrong.  Moral and intellectual ambiguity lies at the heart of much work toward the improvement of our society\, our community\, and our world. In this d’var Torah\, Darchei Noam’s Social Justice Scholar-in-Residence will draw on decades of antipoverty work in health care\, and on the turmoil of the past year\, to explore the tortuous struggles that underlie efforts to achieve impactful\, positive social change. \nDr. Bloch will also lead an interactive post-Kiddush discussion.
