Dear devoted Ms. Menucha Finkelstein,
\nDirector of the Ezer Mizion Activity Clubs,<\/p>\n

You cannot appreciate the full extent of the need for some chesed <\/i>organizations until you yourself need them.<\/p>\n

If you never stood there, helpless and confused, because your child was lost –
\nHow could you know what a lifesaver the Gamach for Lost Children is?<\/p>\n

If you never had a baby late Friday afternoon –
\nHow could you know what a Gamach Sholom Zochor is all about?<\/p>\n

If you never felt at a loss, deciding which doctor to turn to –
\nHow could you appreciate the value of a Medical Referrral Gamach?<\/p>\n

Only parents of a special child who have experienced the Ezer Mizion activity clubs – can fully appreciate that for our special children – the clubs are EVERTHING!<\/p>\n

First of all – they are a home away from home! – <\/b>warmth, concern, acceptance, and unconditional love.\u00a0 Words aren’t necessary; just take a look at a child who comes home at 6:00 – the happiness in his eyes says it all!<\/p>\n

They are also a school<\/a>!<\/b> – Make no mistake; these clubs are not “babysitters”. Here the children learn and develop in all areas: Forming good habits, developing social skills, individual work with professional guidance, arts and crafts<\/a>, home economics, music therapy, computers<\/a>, thought development and creative drama. They even arrange to bring the children to their paramedical therapy sessions.<\/p>\n

And they’re even a camp experience<\/b> – Their brothers are almost jealous, because the Ezer Mizion clubs are lots of fun: An especially attractive gymboree room, to encourage activity and sensory stimulation, trampolines<\/a>, interesting films, refreshing trips and outings to the park.<\/p>\n

And yes – it also gives us parents a breather.<\/p>\n

As parents with plenty of rich, successful experience – we just wanted to say thank you!<\/p>\n<\/td>\n
