Dear FriendsDwKYPA_EBeQ

We are happy to send you a photo report after an extremely productive period at Alumim and the Educational Campus, which included numerous camps for boys, girls and parents, Shabbatons and seminars, leading into preparations for the new school year and Jewish Calendar Year.

A total of about 400 children, thank G-d, participated this year in the various camps, many of which for whom it was their first experience ever in Jewish surroundings.

Another new development is that a representative of Alumim and the Jewish Community has been spending the summer traveling thousands of miles around Central and Western Ukraine, seeking out needy Jewish families who can benefit from what Alumim has to offer. He has already met with hundreds of families, some of which have had no previous connection with any Jewish institutions. Some of these children already participated in the summer camps, some families will begin to receive regular humanitarian aid packages and other assistance, and some additional children will be arriving to live at Alumim.20150724_142940

The current short lull in activities will be utilized for some necessary renovations to the Children’s Home, as well as ongoing renovations to the school kitchen and extensive remodeling and refurbishing of the kindergarten.

During the summer there were also several day activities for children from the city. Ten new circumcisions also took place and were duly celebrated.

Approximately thirty new children are to be enrolled in our institutions for the upcoming year.

The building of the new Mikvah is, thank G-d progressing steadily, as is the construction of the synagogue, albeit at a slower pace.
Thank you very much for your continuous help and support, which enable us to continue, notwithstanding the ongoing difficult situation in Ukraine.
May you and yours be inscribed for a happy New Year,

Shlomo and Esther Wilhelm
