“How much can I run?
I don’t know.
I CAN’T run.
How much can you give?
I don’t know.
You CAN’T give?
But when my campers ask,
CAN we fight?
There’s not much to answer.
There is not much to think about.
I put on my onesie, grab a cup of flour, start dancing, and create as much Simcha as I CAN.
So join me.
Let’s show these kids how little “CAN’T” means.
Because if I run, even though I CAN’T.
THEN HE FIGHTS EVEN THOUGH HE CAN’T.
Then we can all do things we can’t.
How about you.
What CAN you do?”
- Beenim Edelstein, Camp Simcha Faculty 2022-Present

It’s these words that inspired me to fundraise even though I could’ve spent an entire month pondering “Do I need to even fundraise?”. Because at the end of the day, it’s not about me, it’s not about you, it’s about the unlimited opportunity that all of us together can give these children of Chayeinu/Chai Lifeline Israel to make their Simcha last a lifetime. So please, help me help Chai Lifeline to keep putting smiles on these kids faces. Thank you! -Yaakov
