My journey with Shalva began 10 years ago.
Since that time, I have run for Shalva in the Jerusalem Marathon each year. Every time I visit Shalva I am amazed and moved by what I see. I will be honest with you, before going to Shalva I had a different concept of what a challenge was. I am blessed with wonderful healthy daughters, sons in law and grandchildren.
So, what are MY challenges?? My car needs repairing? The roof leaks? My tuition payments? Training for the marathon?
I realize that those “challenges” pale in comparison to what the parents and families at Shalva have to deal with EVERY SINGLE DAY. They cannot pay some money and have their problem go away….. They cannot train so they will be prepared… I cannot imagine what they must deal with…..
Shalva is there to show these families that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. It shows them how to move towards that light….one step at a time….
For those of you who have never visited Shalva I will tell you it is an emotional roller-coaster, you do not know if you should cry because of all the challenges these children must overcome or laugh because of all the smiling children and staff. But the one thing that you do realize it that Shalva is a very special place and one that supports families WITH NO FEE FOR SERVICE!!!!
I cannot be a volunteer, nor am I able to write them a large cheque, but what I can do is spread the word of what Shalva does and hope that people like yourself will join me in supporting Shalva in all that they do.
