TIKKUN OLAM
Tikkun Olam is a core value of Kedem and underpins our social action commitment.
If you have a project that you would like to initiate or a project that you would like to suggest Kedem take onboard contact Shaun Miller, Tikkun Olam coordinator, 0439 391 377 shaun@shaunmillerlawyers.com.au
KEDEM'S TIKKUN OLAM PROJECT BEGINNING AT SHAVUOT
At a Tikkun Leil Shavuot celebration, people stay up late, studying Jewish texts, a tradition many are able to maintain only by consuming caffeine, in particular, coffee!
Most coffee is grown by subsistence farmers who are facing crisis as worldwide coffee prices have plummeted.
Fair Trade coffee is a real solution. Fair Trade certification ensures that coffee farmers are paid a livable wage, while also promoting sustainable practices, such as organic farming.
Let’s serve only Fair Trade coffee, and use our Tikkun Leil Shavuot event to kick off and celebrate this commitment. We will provide an opportunity for you to taste various Fair Trade coffees with your cheesecake!
We will continue this important work by serving Fair Trade coffee at Kedem functions throughout the year whenever possible.

MAZON BIN
Please consider bringing along to our Services a non-perishable food item with plenty of ‘use by’ date. A yellow and red Mazon Bin is brought out at each Service. The groceries go directly to Christ Church Community Centre, St.Kilda, for their emergency relief pantry.
