The Northern Westchester Food Festival Raises Funds for Mazon* to Fight Hunger.
Over 400 people from the community came together to celebrate at Temple Beth El’s first “Northern Westchester Food Festival: We Feed the Hungry.” Over 30 local restaurants offered their signature dishes and people savored samples from restaurants that they frequent but many were introduced to other restaurants from surrounding areas. “It was wonderful to see new and old faces participate in a community event for a good cause,”says Susan Pecker, a Vice President at Temple Beth El. “Due to popular demand, we will be having it again next year.” *Proceeds of the event were earmarked in a donation to Mazon, a national nonprofit organization working to end hunger among people of all faiths and backgrounds in the United States and Israel.
