Darkaynu Giving Day 2020
$88,242.00
88% Raised of $100,000 Goal
CAMPAIGN DETAILS
As the 2020 financial year comes to its close, the OTS Darkaynu family will unite for our 3rd annual Giving Day event
 
While COVID-19 restrictions have required us to think outside the box in virtually every aspect of our program, we see, daily, the results of that decision as our special students are thriving in their routines and are so happy to back in Midrasha and Yeshiva.  Of course, this year's unique challenges have resulted in higher expenses for our program and enrollment has been affected due to health concerns.  We need your help to assure our continued ability to light the way in Jewish inclusive living, learning and leadership.
 
Please donate generously. Every dollar counts. Every second counts. Every person counts.
 
 
**PLEASE NOTE: ALL OF OUR STUDENTS (PICTURED) FOLLOW STRICT HEALTH PROTOCOLS AS MANDATED BY ISRAEL'S MINISTRY OF HEALTH.  MASKS MAY BE REMOVED WHILE IN CAPSULES OR BRIEFLY FOR PICTURES**
