GreenFaith, a NJ based nonprofit, came to Temple Beth David in Commack, Long Island on 3/10/13 to enliven the community of faith’s efforts on stewardship of the earth.
Through their Ground for Hope event, over 100 people from different religious backgrounds came together to learn:
- How their institution can grow gardens that provide food for the needy,
- Opportunities to save energy & money in their buildings, and
- Ways to inform their communities about sustainability issues.
Inspiring and educational, it was a great opportunity for people of different faiths to meet local sustainability leaders and recognize that stewardship of our environment is a goal shared commonly by all. See Greenfaith.org.
Proud to have been a part of organizing this great event!
