Shalach Manot & Hamentaschen Baking
Continuing with our Har Shalom tradition, every congregant, preschool family, and religious school family will receive a gift box at their home, delivered by a community volunteer.
As our community has grown and the cost of ingredients continues to increase, we are grateful for your donations to offset the cost of baking and other shalach manot items. For this year to be successful, please fill out the Purim form (at the bottom of this page) to donate or to volunteer your time as a hamentaschen baker, box assembler, or delivery driver. If you will not be in town when boxes are delivered, please email purim@nocoharshalom.org to let us know. Your Purim box will be available for pickup at Har Shalom when you return.
