Thank You to the Fabulous Volunteers:
The success of these events would not have been possible without our fabulous volunteers! Unfortunately we did not catch all of their names, but we thank them all from the bottom of our hearts.
They include Brenda Hooper, Sean Cummings, Daniel Aizenman, Noam Bar Yamin, Debbie Robertson, Tanya Brown, Max Federman, Chris Sanders, Gabriel Schulmann, Edie Roodman and Suzie Loveless (Oklahoma Israel Exchange), Kevin Peake, Adam Judkiewicz, Kasi Shelton (OU Hillel), Juan Arango, Doug Latham, Katie Maschino (Hunger Free Oklahoma), Gary Dubois, Taylor Broyles, Louise Bass, Reed Powell, Diana and Mike Forrest, Paula and Thurston Knox, and Michael Baughman. We also thank Feed The Children for loaning us a pallet jack and for delivering it.
Coordinating these volunteers efficiently and professionally was our rabbinic intern Mendel Mann with the help of super volunteer Yochanan Sorenson.
Our Heartfelt Thanks to the Village and OKC Police Departments:
They kept the massive turnout safe under the supervision of Deputy Chief Russ Landon.
