Bracelets, water bottles, blankets, warm hats, and toys were among the gifts YSZ High School for Girls students packed for Israel during their Chesed Day on Friday, November 6. They also wrote notes of encouragement to send with the gifts.
The day began at school with a d'var Torah from Dr. Rina Zerykier, Menahelet, followed by Mrs. Rachel Frogel, who spoke about her chesed work. The students then went to Beth Gavriel to pack donations from four campaigns they had organized over several weeks in preparation for their senior trip to Israel.
With support from the school community, the students gathered bracelets for IDF soldiers, Owala water bottles and blankets for injured soldiers in rehabilitation, warm beanies for soldiers stationed in northern Israel, and toys for children at Shaare Zedek Hospital.
