Dear Family and Friends, As I approach my Bat Mitzvah year, I am learning what it means to be a good person who can make a difference in the world. On Sunday December 7, 2025 together with my Bat Mitzvah club, I will be leading the Jump for Chai event. Proceeds from the event support the children of Chai Lifeline Canada as well as a portion going to Chai Israel families who have been affected by the war. I am honoured to be planning and running this ‘kids helping kids’ event where in addition to the activities I will do, I will be able to choose how the money I raise will be used to benefit a child or family.When a child is born or diagnosed with a serious illness, the entire family is affected. Families literally can be torn apart as one parent moves into the hospital to be with the sick child. Siblings, already worried about a brother’s, sister’s or parent’s health, suffer greatly when their daily routines are disrupted. Chai Lifeline Canada steps in, offering whatever is needed, bringing light, laughter and happiness into the darkest times.This Chanukah, Chai Lifeline Canada needs your help more than ever. This organization does incredible work and provides support to children who are battling serious illnesses in Canada and across the globe.  In helping me reach my fundraising goals, you are also helping to support the Chai Warriors and their families. Thank you for your support.XOXO Kaia
