Get Involved Planning ACI's Events! |

We have a great roster of activities planned for the High Holidays and beyond, but we can always use more help and more ideas. If you're interested in helping to plan and run our community events, please join our standing Events Committee meetings, the second Tuesday of every month at 8pm (over Zoom). The next meeting will be next Tuesday night, September 10.

High Holiday Food Drive |
|
ACI is once again supporting City Harvest's High Holidays Food Drive. From September 16 through October 21, we will be collecting non-perishable, kosher foods at ACI. Look for the box in the lobby, and donate whatever you can to support our fellow New Yorkers in need.
Of particular need are shelf-stable, non-perishable kosher sources of protein, such as: beans, nuts, sardines, salmon, tuna, and peanut butter. |
