This Channukah season I will be participating in Jump for Chai for the children of Chai Lifeline Canada and in Israel.
I am really excited to be planning and running this 'kids helping kids' event where in addition to the activities I will do, I will be able to choose how the money I raise will be used to benefit a child or family.
When a child is born or diagnosed with a serious illness, the entire family is affected. Families literally can be torn apart as one parent moves into the hospital to be with the sick child. Siblings, already worried about a brother's, sister's or parent's health, suffer greatly when their daily routines are disrupted. Chai Lifeline Canada steps in, offering whatever is needed, bringing light, laughter and happiness into the darkest times. This organization does incredible work and provides support to children who are battling serious illnesses as well as children who have lost a parent. I am very fortunate that I will be able to choose how a family will benefit from the funds I raise.
In helping me reach my fundraising goals, you are also helping to support the Chai Warriors and their families.
