Our names are Ryan Altmann and Isaac Wolf and we both have our bar mitzvahs coming up in the next few months. For our mitzvah project, we have decided to raise money for the Israel Sports Center for the Disabled (ISCD), an organization that allows kids with disabilities to participate in all kinds of sports. We first heard about ISCD a few years ago when Ryan’s mom went to Israel and talked about how amazing it was. Then we participated in a few different events when the ISCD visited Atlanta, most recently at the Maccabi games this past Summer.
We have gotten to meet some of the athletes and they all say how the ISCD has become such an important part of their lives. We both love to play sports, especially basketball and we were amazed at how good the Wheelchair basketball players were from ISCD. And it’s not just basketball that the ISCD offers. There are 18 different sports that the kids can participate in, including tennis, soccer and competitive swimming. This organization is truly amazing and it would mean a lot to us if you could make a donation and support our mitzvah project.
