    This Summer, I am excited to take part in my thirteenth “Bike4Chai”, an exhilarating 150-mile cycling event benefiting the children and families of Chai Lifeline. My ride is dedicated to my grandson Yehoshua who arrived prematurely at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital in September 2019 at a pound and a half. After spending eleven months in the NICU and Tracheostomy units, he finally came home for his first birthday. Although growing into a mischievous toddler with a charming personality, overcoming many hurdles on the way to recovery including the recent removal of his breathing tube, we look forward to the day his feeding tube could also be removed. Observing the challenges Yehoshua and his family face daily, reinforces my drive to support Chai Lifeline’s essential programs.

    Every mile I ride and every dollar I raise will help support more than two-dozen programs for more than 6,000 children and families confronting pediatric illness, crisis, and loss. These services include counseling and case management, meals delivered to hospitals and homes, transportation to medical appointments, emergency financial assistance, insurance advocacy, i-Shine afterschool programming, Big Brothers/Sisters, Project Chai crisis intervention, and Camp Simcha and Camp Simcha Special, Chai Lifeline’s flagship medically-supervised summer programs. These programs have an immeasurable positive impact on families benefiting from the services of Chai Lifeline. I aim to help Chai Lifeline expand these programs to under-served communities, including where my grandson resides. I am fortunate to be joined by my oldest grandson Shlomo on this journey, who is also dedicating his ride to Yehoshua, his little cousin.

    Life for a child with cancer, disability, or other serious illness is grueling. From the moment of diagnosis, Chai Lifeline’s dedicated staff and volunteers are there to provide joy, hope, and unparalleled care throughout the turbulent medical journey. My objective is to raise $25,000, and I hope you will help me reach this goal. All donations are 100% tax-deductible.  Please contribute generously to this important cause by clicking on the donate button now.

    On behalf of the children and families of Chai Lifeline, thank you for your support.
