One of our outstanding volunteers, Monita Buchwald, had been nominated by the Jewish Federations of North America for the Jewish Community Heroes Award. Monita has been recognized for this honor as a result of her commitment to Met Council, to remedy homelessness and hunger in NYC.

Specifically, she has been actively involved in helping low income New Yorkers become more self sufficient through food and career readiness education. She has led healthy cooking classes and nutrition workshops for low income seniors at our housing sites around the city. In addition she has participated in numerous job readiness workshops aimed at improving the networking skills and resumes of our clients in search of employment.

We all greatly appreciate the work Monita has done for Met Council, the Jewish Community and NYC as a whole!
