For fourteen years I had the privilege – and pleasure – to run AKIM-Jerusalem's annual sponsored trek, "Miles for Smiles". This year, I am going to see everything from the other side as I intend being one of the intrepid trekkers!

Please sponsor my efforts to help bring even more smiles to the faces of AKIM-Jerusalem's clients with intellectual disabilities, which I am doing in the name of my mother, Lydia z'l, who died last summer.
