CONNECT WITH US

When we decided on the theme for our 2023 Annual Campaign, Hope Lives Here, we were thinking of the many hundreds of children and families we have supported in over 17 years of Chai Lifeline Canada. Ofek Lalkin – who was among our fist clients - is one of those children. Ofek, now 27, has special memories of time spent with his case manager, Chai big brother and many summers at @campsimcha. Living with cerebral palsy, Ofek has had many challenges – employment being a more recent one. Discovering that it can be difficult for a person living with a disability to find a job, Ofek took matters into his own hands and created a business around something he’s passionate about -his Judaism. His online store, @ofeksjudaica, has beautiful and unique pieces for the holidays, books and more. Ofek is giving back and is donating a portion from every purchase to Chai Lifeline Canada.

When we talk about what “we” do to support our families, the “we” is our staff and it is also our volunteers. Our volunteers play an integral role in giving our families what they need on a daily basis. Sometimes our volunteers deliver meals and packages and other times they deliver moments. 📸 Recently this pair of volunteers in our Big Siblings program took this pair of siblings to the park on a sunny afternoon so that Mom and Dad could spend some time together. Parents were grateful for the opportunity to go for a walk and know that their kids were having fun outside. Thank you to all of our volunteers who deliver moments like this to our families. #chailifelinecanada #chailifeline #whatwedowednesdays #we #volunteers #bigsiblings #deliveringmoments #deliveringhappiness #wearefamily #thisisus #family ...
