Mrs. Toby Einhorn Swims the Kinneret!

We are proud of our teacher, Mrs. Toby Einhorn, who will be swimming the Kinneret with the “Swim 4 Sadnat Shiluv” Women’s Swim-a-thon next week!

Mrs. Einhorn will be joining dozens of other women from across the country and the world swimming across the Kinneret next Wednesday as part of a fundraising event on behalf of Sadnat Shiluv, located in the community of Rosh Tzurim in Gush Etzion, Israel. 

Sadnat Shiluv encourages maximal integration of special needs individuals (kindergarten through young adulthood) into the community.  Thanks to the proceeds of Swim4Sadna 2010, Sadnat Shiluv is providing a safe and secure place for 6 additional young adults to live, study work and lead an independent life in Rosh Tzurim.  Integration increases these young adults’ feelings of belonging and encourages them to become active, productive members of their community.

Go Mrs. Einhorn!!
