Ralph Herzka
This summer, I am excited to take part in Bike4Chai, an exhilarating and challenging cycling event benefiting the children and families of Chai Lifeline. Every mile I ride and every dollar I raise will help support critical programs and services for more than 6,000 families impacted by 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, crisis and trauma intervention, and Chai Lifeline’s flagship medically-supervised summer programs, Camp Simcha, Camp Simcha Special, and Camp Simcha Without Borders.
I’ve committed to raising $1,000,000 for this important cause and I hope I can count on you to help me reach my goal. All donations are 100% tax-deductible.
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. Please contribute generously by clicking on the donate button now.
On behalf of the children and families of Chai Lifeline, thank you for your support.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! As a previous councilor in camp I just wanted to express my deepest Hakoras Hatov for all that you have done and continue to do for the campers in camp. The smiles on theirs faces are as bright as the sun shines, and it spreads rays of joy to all that are around them.
