Hello my name is Matthew Fahn. I am having my Bar Mitzvah November 19, 2016. For my Mitzvah project I am raising money for the Israel Sports Center for the Disabled. The ISCD is an organization that rehabilitates the physically disabled through wheelchair sports. The ISCD works with all ethnicities and faiths. I was personally touched by a video that was sent to me by Asael Shabbo. When he was 9 years old, terrorists broke into his house and killed 3 of his siblings and shot him as well. He was in the hospital for 18 months and lost his right leg. The ISCD worked with him and now he is a wheelchair basketball champion. You can click this link to watch his video he sent to me.
My goal is to raise enough money for 10 wheelchairs. Each wheelchair costs $2500. My grandparents, Mike and Nancy SItrick, in addition to their donation, said if I reach half my goal they will donate another wheelchair. Thank you in advance for helping me reach my goal.
Sincerely, Matthew
