Shalom to you all.
As Rosh Hashanah and the year 5771 approach, it is a time for reflection and a time for new beginnings.
We, at the Union of Jewish Women of South Africa, are so proud of our achievements this past year, but know that we could not have done it without our wonderful volunteers and you, the public, who have always supported us so generously in our endeavors.
We wish you and your families a Shana Tova U’Metuka, VeGamar Chatima Tova, and a meaningful Fast.
May the coming year be filled with blessings, joy, good health and peace.
