Growing up, it seems like I've watched everyone around me run with Team Lifeline. My Dad and his 3 brothers have all been part of the team as long as I can remember. I would run with my Dad over the 6 years he ran with Team Lifeline too. Now, after being a cheeleader, I've decided to join myself, and support this amazing organization!

I'm lucky that my family personally has not needed major services from Chai Lifeline. But I got to see a glimpse of it a little while back, when my little brother Manny had appendicitis, and his appendix burst over New Years. He needed to transfer hospitals, and spend close to a week in the hospital recovering. My Mom was there the whole time, and my Dad was back and forth each day. Throughout that week, Chai Lifeline took care of all of us. They brought meals to our home and checked in on us, they brought meals for my Mom and Dad and brother in the hospital, people came to visit Manny in the hospital with gifts and games and made sure he wasn't only taken care of but felt special. It was really special and made a hard situation so much easier to handle. And that only scratches the surface of what they do.

Chai Lifeline provides such incredible social, emotional, and financial support to so many kids, the Chai Lifeline Warriors. Every day, these kids show immense courage and resilience. Inspired by their strength, I've set a goal to raise $15,000 to help continue the vital services Chai Lifeline offers, like case management, counseling, meal deliveries, financial aid, their renowned medically-supervised Simcha summer camps, and so much more.

I need your help to make this possible.

Please donate to my campaign today and I hope you will give generously in support of these Chai Lifeline warriors fighting the greatest battle of their lives.

Thank you!
