Message to sponsors

I figured it was about time to start taking care of my health and being a good role model to my JSU and NCSY teens when it comes to the mitzvah of v’nishmartem es nafshosaychem (taking care of one’s health). Sooooo…..I have joined a program called…wait for it…..YES!!! RABBIS CAN RUN!. This is a great group with coaches that work with us to set running goals and train us so we can achieve those goals. When I started 4 weeks ago, I couldn’t run 1/2 a block. Now I am up to 3.5 miles (as of 12/10/24) with a goal of running a 15K (10 miles) in February in Miami. (OK I admit, I just wanted to get to Miami, but there are definitely easier ways to get there.)

In any event, to join this prestigious group, I committed to raise $3,600 to help fund Jewish teens in public schools to spend a GAP Year studying Judaism in Israel upon graduating high school. This mission of OLAMI, the sponsoring organization, fits very well with my personal mission through my work with NCSY & JSU, inspiring teens to see the meaningfulness and relevancy of Judaism and Israel to their daily lives.

Here is where I am asking for your help. No. You do not have to run with me, or drink those weird protein drinks. Here is how you can help me and the Jewish People. Please consider making a donation towards my goal. Your donation can be inspired out of a belief in the importance of the OLAMI mission or it could be because you don’t believe old fat man like me can actually make it to complete a 15K. Either way, you will be helping to strengthen the Jewish People and inspiring me to push harder to succeed in my 15K goal.

Thank you so much for supporting my campaign and helping me complete my RCR race while inspiring others to improve their health! If you have any questions please reach out to me.
