I am walking for...

Описание: To parents and friends of Leibler Yavneh College,
This year on the 16th and 17th of April a team of students and staff from Yavneh is walking 60 km around Melbourne as part of the Weekend Walk To End Women’s Cancers. As an orthodox Jewish day school, where most of our students are of Ashkenazi background, we are no strangers to the occurrence of women's cancers. Too many of us have had friends and family who have suffered with one of these cancers.
In order to participate in the walk, each student must raise at least $1200 and each staff member must raise at least $2000.
As part of the walk takes place over Shabbat/Sabbath, we have organised a Shabbat programme where we will be walking to a variety of Shules/Synagogues within the Eiruv. It will be a really special Shabbat which we have organised with the co-operation of Rabbi Sendor and Rabbi Cowen. We will be joining the main group of walkers on early Sunday morning for the second day of the two- day walk.
The money raised from the walk will provide vital funding to research and clinical care at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Australia's only public hospital solely dedicated to cancer, and home to Australia's largest cancer research group.
We are very excited to be the first school to enter a team in this worthy walk. In order for us to reach our goal, we need your support. The Pratt Foundation has generously agreed to match dollar for dollar, up to $25,000 so feel free to donate to any member of the Yavneh Team, as all donations contribute to our team's goal. Please donate generously to this cause, which is so close to our hearts.
thanks,
Team Yavneh
