Three Days Is Not Enough!

                

Did you know that in Israel the Pesach school break lasts about three weeks? Can you imagine having kids underfoot for all of that time—especially with the cooking and cleaning that goes with the holiday celebration?

Check out these pictures taken earlier this week at the inclusive Pesach Camp run by Shutaf, our Israeli grantee that offers kids with disabilities and without, the joy of camp and after-school activities.  It was The Good People Fund’s honor to underwrite the cost of camp for teens in the Etgarim program. Climbing trees, swinging from ropes and experiencing the fun and excitement every one associates with camping—what could be better? It was no wonder that one participant exclaimed, “Why can’t we stay all week?!? Three days is not enough!”
