Summer Camp for the Shluchim
Donation protected
I know what you're thinking... Another "gofundme campaign". Your'e right!
But here's where we stand out.
Every summer, children of all ages get a break from their daily lives and are given the opportunity to truly be, well, children. Whether they go to camp or on family vacations, summertime adventures are a childhood favorite.
Unfortunately, this is not the case for the Jewish children in Western Ukraine. These children of Shluchim, sacrifice their whole year to help their parents bring Judaism to Jews who otherwise would not have it. We want to give them the same summer experience other children have, by creating a camp for them in Western Ukraine. Help us to ensure that these children have at least one carefree summer.
The camp is being run and organized by a group of dedicated volunteers, that way every dollar given goes straight into programming for the camp. We urge you to donate as much as you can, every little bit helps give these children the chance to once again be children.
The parents of the children work very hard to put food on the table. The situation in Ukraine is not easy. I don't have to tell you how hard it is financially to send their children to out of town camps. As a result, the children end up sitting around at home twiddling their thumbs for the entirety of the summer. Therefore, I ask for your help, because every little bit can and will help us reach our goal!
Heck, who knows what a couple of dollars can do?
(Remember, there isn't much time until the summer, so let's make it happen).
