Bnei Mitzvah Program - Chai Lifeline Canada

When you become a Bnei Mitzvah,
you take on personal responsibility
to change the world.

Chai Lifeline has a successful history of teaming up with Bar and Bat Mitzvah teens, helping them create meaningful and high-impact Mitzvah projects.

We are honoured to be part of their first steps as they come a full-fledged members of the Jewish community.

We can help enhance your milestone celebration with a special mitzvah that gives back to your community by supporting Chai children and families who are dealing with illness.

and do a mitzvah all the same time!

We Know You Have Some Questions...

Any child becoming a Bar/Bat Mitzvah!

Every family has a different idea of what their goal should be. Some don’t want to publish a goal in order to not put pressure on loved ones for a donation if they cannot afford to do so. We’ve had those families choose $1 for their goal and they end up raising thousands of dollars! There is no right or wrong - your efforts are truly what matter.

Funds raised go toward supporting Chai Lifeline’s work throughout the Canadian Jewish community including our well known “Toy Tank”, support groups, meal and case management programs.

When you register, our website will develop a personal page that you can send out with your invitations to let your family and friends know that your Mitzvah project is Chai Lifeline. Take the opportunity to tell them why Chai Lifeline is an organization in our community that you support and when they understand the commitment that you are making, they will be able to support you by making a donation through your page.

You can choose a particular project to direct your gifts to (for example: Shining Stars after school activities, toys for our Chai kids stuck in the hospital, or back to school bags filled with supplies!) and we will ensure that your Mitzvah reaches our children and families as you want.
