Jewish Family Service of Buffalo & Erie County Presents
Mahj & Margs
Thursday, August 9 at 6:30 PM – 9 PM
Buffalo Marriott Niagara
1340 Millersport Hwy, Amherst, New York 14221
Friendship, philanthropy & fun!
Be a game-changer for Children’s Mental Health while playing the game you love or don’t know you love yet.
Enjoy a summer evening of Mah Jongg, refreshing margaritas, a light Vaad Supervised nosh, boutique vendors, and renowned Mah Jongg maven and author, Karen Gooen. And door prizes too!
Whether you are an expert level player or a total novice, all levels are welcome. Teachers will be on-site to help you get your mahj-on or refine your game. Are you more of a bridge, canasta, or poker player? Then it is a good thing that JFS doesn’t discriminate—not in our services nor on game night. See you there!
Each ticket includes a margarita or glass of wine, kosher snacks, and a copy of Karen’s book, Small World.
The best part of attending this event is the amazing feeling of supporting Jewish Family Service’s Children’s Mental Health program. Did you know that JFS’s licensed therapists diagnose and treat our community’s children with the following challenges (and so much more)?
