Shaare Zedek Cruise Sept 13th!!!

I've been at my job now just over a week... I am loving it! First off i actually feel needed which is always a really nice feeling and not one that I often had at Aish... Right now the main thing that I am working on is our annual dinner which is Dec 3rd! The dinner which is going to be at Pier 60 at Chelsea Piers will be celebrating Israel's 60th birthday and will be raising money for the new Children's Hospital at SZ...

This Saturday night is another fun event- the Shaare Zedek Children's Champion Cruise Event. This event is also raising money for the Children's Hospital and specifically has a goal of dedicating a PICU Bed Unit. Whats great about this event is that it's a young professionals event and so is only open to those in their 20s and 30s... so.... ARE YOU IN NY AND IN YOUR 20s AND 30s????




There's also a raffle:

1- A Round Trip for 2 for a weekend away at the Omni Orlando Resort at Champions Gate as well as

2- A Weekend away at the Heritage Southbury Spa Hotel in Conn.

3- Sports Ticket Package- Great Tickets Football, Hockey and Baseball

4- 14K White Gold Diamond Pendant with 14K White Gold chain- (60pts of diamonds)

other than that life is pretty much the same- work... shiur/chavrusa/gym/hanging out with friends etc... This weekend is Erica and Jordan's wedding which is super exciting- I'm really excited to go to Atlanta for the weekend... anyone know of anything to do there on friday or on saturday night....

have a good one... and come to the cruise!!!

Life...

so I started my new job yesterday- i'm working at american committee for shaare zedek... yesterday was somewhat of a slow day- setting up my computer and getting organized/getting a feel for the office...

today was a bit crazier- before i even came in i had emails with stuff to do and i just kind of took off running- other then lunch the work didnt stop or slow down at all... there's a huge dinner event on Dec 3rd and so everyone is very focused on getting everything prepared for that. I'm gonna be spending a lot of my time working on sending out a lot of letters to people about the event.

the main focus for raising money right now is the new pediatrics ward of the hospital- it's such an amazing cause- (read- give to the shaare zedek children's hospital- don't forget it's Elul- a great time for tzedaka)

Everyone in the office seems really nice and it seems like a great work environment so i'm really excited to see what the months and years ahead hold for me there.

and on that note it's way too late for me to be up and i am exhausted...

night...
