Social Action/Tikun Olam
We might not have advanced spells, magic wands, or Nimbus 2000s, but we too are fighting Dark Magic every day. Aurors, meet your new competition … SA/TO!
Social Action/Tikkun Olam – Often, when we think of this aspect of USY, we imagine volunteering at the local soup kitchen, being forced to give Tzedakah at conventions, or writing a quickly scribbled card for someone in a hospital. But, just as there are endless ways to combat evil wizards, there are endless ways to do SA/TO. When we explore it in the right ways, this aspect has the potential to reach so many in our communities. Through SA/TO we can do anything from raising money to send a friend on USY Israel Pilgrimage to creating workshops to teach senior citizens how to use Facebook®. In this section of the website, you will find creative ideas like these, and much, much more.
You don’t have to graduate from Hogwarts to be a SA/TO. You can start anytime – why not now?
Peace, Love, SA/TO,
