Sponsor Team Elisheva and Mommy - Walking against ALS

Here is the email message I am sending around... feel free to read it and donate whatever you want - or join us walking!

Hi, everybody!

This is a "mass" email, but I am sending it to one person at a time because I want to make sure you know that a) I would never just spam everybody in my address book, and b) this is a cause that means a lot to me personally. We are walking in memory of Elisheva's ~~grandmother~~ (GAAH - I accidentally said GRANDMOTHER but it was her great-grandmother and her GRANDMOTHER was the one who caught it and I am so embarrassed!!!), who had ALS, as well as in honour of our friend Arlene, who is currently living with the effects of the disease.

Other than the Zareinu Moveathon, this is the only fundraiser our family is planning this year, so I hope you will click the link below, read a bit of the background information there, and consider sponsoring us in this fun and meaningful walk.

Thank you!

Jennifer & Elisheva

p.s. Our team name spells TEAM - Team Elisheva and Mommy - get it?!? :-)))

She asks, in part, because she already knows how I feel. She already knows I’m bothered, though to her, it’s mostly about “liking” and “not liking.” I wish things were that simple. Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community. Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos. Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another. So at that point, this isn’t outreach but inreach . Convincing people who are religious to be… what? A lot of Chabad’s efforts here are focused o...
