United Jewish Appeal (UJA) of MetroWest NJ’s annual Super Sunday, a full-day event of fundraising and community activities, will be held on December 3, from 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., on the Alex Aidekman Family Jewish Community Campus, Whippany.

Super Sunday will devote the day to a community-wide fundraising phonathon. Accompanying activities will be a blood drive from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m., kosher food collection, babysitting (available from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.), and an Israeli marketplace for Hanukkah shopping. JCC MetroWest and The Partnership for Jewish Learning and Life will conduct activities for children, including a Music and Movement program at 2 p.m. The day will end with an ice cream sundae celebration.

As part of the nearly 800 community volunteers who will be manning the phones, a number of government officials have pledged their support of Super Sunday and plan to attend the festivities. Officials scheduled to attend include N.J. Senator Thomas H. Kean, Jr.; N.J. Assemblymen Jon Bramnick, Tom Giblin, John McKeon, and Gary Schaer; Morris County Freeholder Jack Schrier; and Essex County Freeholder Vice President Patricia Sebold.
