Join Repair the World as we team up with Maot Chitim to pack non-perishable food for Rosh Hashanah! We’ll gather in Highland Park on Sunday, August 23, 2026 for a shift of packing, schmoozing, and giving back. Wear closed-toe shoes and come ready to work with your hands. This Repair the World group is for young adults ages 27 and under and a great chance to meet other young professionals while making a real difference for families in our Chicago community ahead of the holiday. If you’re outside that age range and want to volunteer for this project, reach out to Maot Chitim directly. If you have questions about upcoming Repair programs, please email Lauren.
