The Jewish Girls Retreat is gearing up for a great summer, almost ready for take off. This year girls will be “Flying to Freedom” as they participate in art, drama, dance, song, creative writing and learn that we can escape our boundaries to reach our fullest potential.
The girls in the camp will star in a movie about a journey of a teenage girl going back to her Jewish roots based on a true story about the inspirational teacher, Rabbi Azriel Yitzchok Wasserman, OBM. With the girls in camp will be hand selected counselors and staff are traveling in from all over the world. Co-pilots Nechama and Avraham Laber, directors of JGR, are expecting over 80 campers and 40 staff.
This year, Jewish Girls Retreat will once again be holding a scholarship raffle to help girls take part in this life changing experience, and we’re turning to you to join in our mission with our Golden Ticket Raffle. When you purchase a ticket, you’ll be entered to win $100,000, and more great prizes.
It’s a win-win situation:
CAMPERS WIN. The proceeds of this raffle will go towards our JGR scholarship fund, enabling Jewish girls to experience a life-changing Jewish experience at JGR, regardless of their financial situation.
THE WORLD WINS. The Jewish world wins by strengthening Jewish continuity and inspiring the next generation of mothers who will create homes with strong Jewish identities.
YOU WIN. You win and are rewarded by G-d for performing the mitzvah of tzedakah.
YOU WIN AGAIN. You have many chances to win prizes up to $100,000 for your
