In just six days, Shalom Corps-Genesis Toronto gathered a legion of 1,000 do-gooders.
The volunteers are mobilizing to provide assistance in three key areas: welfare checks on 200,000 Jews in the Toronto area, grocery delivery to the homebound, and preparing Passover food packages for the needy.
Shalom Corps is an initiative of Mosaic United – a partnership between the Ministry of Diaspora Affairs and global Jewry – and the Jewish Agency.
