The Community Table Lunch program is excited to welcome the summer season with a fresh new menu and new faces joining us at the Denver JCC. As the weather warms up, we look forward to gathering together over delicious summer-inspired meals, including kosher-style brats, classic barbecue favorites, and other seasonal dishes that bring folks together around the table. 

The para-chaplain program in the Denver area currently consists of 15 volunteer para-chaplains who reach hundreds of Jewish older adults across 14 residential facilities. Para-chaplains lead Shabbat and holiday services and meet one-on-one with residents.

Boulder Volunteer Needs

Evie and Mary Ann have been spearheading programs at Golden West Senior Living for more than 18 months. Evie and Mary Ann organize monthly movie nights, choose films with compelling themes, from documentaries to comedies. They have enjoyed getting to know people, watching films, and hearing everyone’s input during discussions. They worked together with staff and residents to create successful events, arranging the community room’s chairs, serving snacks, and navigating AV systems.

The Community Table Lunch Delivery Drivers have the important task of ensuring hot food is delivered to these lunches weekly. This includes picking up the food at Shalom Park, delivering the meals to the JCC, and returning the empty Cambros to Shalom Park.
