Dear Friends and Family,

This past March was my 13th birthday and my family and I were planning an incredible trip to celebrate my Bar Mitzvah in Israel. Unfortunately, the trip has been postponed due to Covid-19.

One of our stops on our tour was to visit Shalva, an organization in Jerusalem that provides services to people with disabilities. One of their services is a sports program for kids with disabilities who want to play basketball. I really identified with this aspect of their program and wanted to do something to help.

While my visit to the Shalva has been delayed for a while, I think this is a great time to help raise money for this wonderful charity. If I raise enough I will even be recognized on their honorary B’nei Mitzvah Dedication wall and also have the opportunity to play a game of hoops with the Shalva basketball team (when I eventually visit).

My goal is to raise $3600 for this amazing organization, please consider donating so I can reach my goal!
