Mitzvah Day
Volunteers and participation are central to much of what the JCC does, so they have established an annual volunteering day called "Mitzvah Day". Organising volunteering opportunities that make a difference to the local and London communities, over 1,200 volunteers participated in the 2008 Mitzvah Day. The 2007 Mitzvah Day was also part of the much broader Enterprise Week initiative.

Famous quotes containing the word day:
“Every man takes care that his neighbor shall not cheat him. But a day comes when he begins to care that he does not cheat his neighbor. Then all goes well. He has changed his marketcare into a chariot of the sun. What a day dawns, when we have taken to heart the doctrine of faith!”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
