The Conservative Synagogue of Westport, Weston, and Wilton and Homes with Hope are kicking off their annual fundraising program Share the Pie. The program lets area residents order Thanksgiving pies for families, friends and businesses. People can also donate their orders to local shelters.

We are so happy to be part of this fundraiser. For over 10 years, Share the Pie has directly helped the hungry and homeless in our community, said Jen Kanfer, co-chair of the TCS Social Action Committee. The money we raise from selling pies is donated directly to Homes with Hope. Share the Pie helps to increase awareness of homelessness in our community.

The program raises money for Homes with Hope, a grassroots organization that works with the homeless. Aside from helping people find permanent housing, it provides emergency shelter, offers casework and supportive services. It also provides food and meals to those in need.

The kosher pies are $22 each and are available in three flavors. The pumpkin is kosher dairy and the pecan and apple pies are kosher pareve. The deadline to order pies is Monday, Nov. 17 by 5 p.m.

Pie orders can be placed through the Share The Pie secure website, http://www.sharethepie.net or by phone: 203-454-4673.

The pies are available to be picked up at the synagogue, 30 Hillspoint Road, Westport, on Tuesday, Nov. 25, between 9 a.m. noonand 4 7 p.m.

For more information about placing orders please email the synagogues Social Action Committee chairs: Michelle Saunders at geckomom@optonline.net or Jennifer Kanfer at Jennifer_kanfer@yahoo.com
