LA Aish HaTorah Community

Dear Friends and Community,

Chanukah is a time of joy and rededication. What better time of year to “rededicate” ourselves to our shul, and specifically to our childcare program.  Twenty years ago, we (Beth and Beth) started the Aish Childcare program, bringing in teachers, toys and money.  In that initial phase, we and the community put in a lot of time and effort fundraising, buying, organizing, and cleaning in order to create and maintain a nice atmosphere for our children.  We are once again calling upon our community to give Aish Childcare   love and attention.

Whether your children have benefited from Aish Childcare in the past, or they are currently enjoying our program, please be a part of our renewed efforts to restore our childcare to its former glory!

This past Simchas Torah the women raised money for Aish Childcare improvements. We have exciting plans to repaint the room, re-carpet, and purchase new furniture and toys. How can you participate in this “rededication?”  (We thought you’d never ask!) It’s so easy. Just follow one of the steps below:

1. While you are out or online Chanukah shopping this week and next for your kinderlach, simply add one more gift to your shopping cart for the Aish Childcare program. Please see the attached Wish List and make your selection.  Be sure to include a gift receipt in case we have duplicates to exchange. (Chinuch Opportunity: have your children wrap the gift and come with you to drop it off at the Aish office during the week of Chanukah.)

2.  Send a check to the Aish office at 1417 S. Doheny Dr. LA CA 90035, and we will use it to purchase needed items. Make sure to put “Aish Childcare” on the memo line.

If you are interested in dedicating yourself more to Aish Childcare, we are forming a new committee that needs you! Please let us know if you’re interested.

Chanukah Sameach!
