There is no more powerful expression of solidarity with the people of Israel than showing them how much we Canadians care by walking in support of our Jewish homeland.

Proceeds from the 2008 Walk with Israel will be directed towards programs for children and youth in Israel with a specific focus on those in Sderot and the Western Negev. Our areas of investment will include trauma services, reinforcing the roofs on key public buildings, educational and social welfare services for youth-at-risk and camping and respite for children and families.

Collecting sponsorships for the 2008 Walk is your way of showing support while at the same time, performing a great mitzvah.    

On behalf of the residents of Israel, UJA Federation of Greater Toronto thanks you for your generosity.
