On Friday, January 13th Temple Dor Dorim hosted the AIPAC Pro-Israel Student Activist/TOUCHY Creative Shabbat. Our youth group led a beautiful Shabbat service
and our student activist, an Hispanic, Catholic young woman from F.I.U., Andrea Valenzuela, spoke from the heart about her passion forIsrael.

On Wednesday, January 18th our TOUCHY Youth Group, under the leadership of our Youth Director Amy Wulwick, continued a dialogue with Andrea and fellow student activist, Becca Sterling. Through role playing and discussion of actual on-campus experiences, the young ladies were able to raise an awareness of anti-Israel activities on their campus at F.I.U. and other campuses throughout the United States. Our young people gained an understanding of how to respond to Israel detractors on their high school and future college campuses.

Our Sponsor a Child program encourages donors to participate in the upbringing of one of our children. The children are not able to live with their biological families due to
abuse, poverty, alcoholism and addiction. Each level of sponsorship helps to feed and clothe our children, provide them with a warm home, supply them with schoolbooks, and pay for their teachers, therapists and private tutors who help them to develop into healthy, confident and loving children and young adults.
Sponsoring a child is a wonderful mitzvah and wonderful mitzvah project for our Bar and Bat Mitzvah children.
