In all honesty, my fundraising adventure began when I started annoying Rabbi Ezi Levi for a sweater. I believe his exact words were, “when you put in the work and raise money for the organization I’ll get you a sweater” or something like that. He then went on to tell me some of what Chai4Ever does. Until then I didn’t realize the magnitude of what they do for people. After that conversation I decided to take the challenge and raise the money so I can finally get that sweater. So, do it for me! But in all seriousness, do it for the kids. Help Chai4Ever continue to do the amazing things they do and continue to help the people who need it the most.
Children with a seriously ill parent have it rough. They deal with the realities of disease on a daily basis. They live with a constant fear of Mommy or Daddy leaving them. They need to act like adults in helping their parents cope. These children need the break that summer camp provides, and the chance to laugh, run and play like "normal" children. Their parent's catastrophic illness and the resulting financial distress leaves families unable to afford summer camp, just when it is needed most. This unique camp program gives these kids a reprieve from a challenging home situation, restores their spirits and renews their strength to persevere!
I am determined to ensure that every child that can benefit from Camp4ever!'s program will have the opportunity to do so. My objective is to raise $3600 to enable these children to go to camp and I hope you will help me reach this goal (and get that sweater). All donations are 100% tax deductible.

Thank you for supporting my efforts on behalf of families fighting cancer and other serious illnesses. Tizku L'Mitzvos!
