Sometimes words cannot really do justice to the wondrous people and programs we discover and welcome to The Good People Fund family. Traveling through Israel over the past two weeks has opened our eyes to some of the most creative and moving tzedakah efforts we have ever seen.
Menachem Stolpner, a Brooklyn-born social worker who made aliyah about 18 years ago, has founded a beautiful organization called Shai Asher (Milton’s Gift) on Kibbutz Shluchot, not far from Beit Shean. In this pastoral setting, four young adults with developmental disabilities are engaged in meaningful employment under Menachem’s watchful eyes and patient demeanor. It is beautiful. Watch for yourself and see how this nascent program is changing lives, one by one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVoHKCsAfGo
You won’t be disappointed.
