I am running in memory of my sweet sister Hudis who was the strongest person I know. She was the first to sign up for a marathon to support chai lifeline while she was battling cancer. She wanted to give back to camp simcha which was a really integral piece of her quality of life though she only had a little under a year of it after camp it really gave her a boost and I saw this with my own eyes. I am doing what she can no longer do, get up on my own two feet and push myself through the streets of Jerusalem. Hopefully you feel called to donate to the cause, and maybe even join my team :) this is a topic I can sit and talk about for hours so if you wanna know more just ask 💖








You may already know that I’m training to run the Jerusalem Marathon 2026 this March. Running a marathon is a personal challenge, but I’m not in this just for the glory. I’m running for something important. I am running to raise money for Chaiyanu/Chai Lifeline Israel, a wonderful organization dedicated to helping very sick children and their families. I heard about this and I had to do something. However, I know I can’t do it alone. I need your help. Chaiyanu is a wonderful organization that provides year–round emotional, social, and financial support to more than 400 children and their families every year. Chaiyanu´s programs and activities change their lives forever, returning joy and hope and enabling them to live full and happy lives despite the presence of illness. Its most famous program is Camp Simcha and its sister, the Hope Tour. Every year these two programs offer 100 kids a chance to forget about illness and just be kids again. To get a better idea of what Chaiyanu does for families, please watch the videos below. I know they will touch your heart the way they touched mine. Training is not easy, but neither is dealing with illness. If the children of Chaiyanu can fight each day, if they can push themselves to go through hospital stays and treatment, I can do this for them. But I can't do this without your support. I need your help to raise as much money as possible for these kids. So please, push the donate button and help me put smiles on the faces of sick children. Let's do this together! Let's make dreams come true. Best - Malky
