Mitzvah Day is proud to work with and launch Inter Faith Week, and we encourage all of our communtities to join up with a Partner of another faith to run projects together on Mitzvah Day.
Faith communities all share a fundamental requirement to do good deeds and to strive to make our world a better place. We can do this together and therefore achieve more whilst getting to know each other better in the process. We hope that the links made on Mitzvah Day will continue to flourish afterwards into long-term relationships.
Mitzvah Day projects, such as Sunshine to Seniors (visiting the elderly), Plant a Tree on Mitzvah Day or Mitzvah Day Shopping (collecting food for the homeless), are a constructive way to begin an inter faith relationship, and we can help you to set up the project to make it even easier!
Please contact info@mitzvahday.org.uk to find out more or get involved!
