Donating your Clothes and Bedding to Those in Need

As tje year comes to a close, you may find that you are overloaded with clothing and bedding that you do not want to bring back home with you. There are many worthy organizations who will accept any items that are clean, folded and in good condition.
One that we recommend is WIZO. This organization, known worldwide provides much support to women and families. They have centers all over the country.
If you are in Jerusalem you can stop by their main office on Mapu St. corner of King David St. between 8:30-6:00 Sunday-Thursday to drop off your clothing and to say hello.
If you are in the center of the country-WIZO has 3 locations in Ramat Gan:
8 Rimon St. 03-752-4717
59 Ahad Haam (Ramat Shikma Gimmel) 03-631-2020
8 Ahad Haam (Ramat Shikma Bet) 03-631-3973
Please make sure to call ahead for hours and details.

Knowing that the items that you enjoyed throughout the year will now be used by families in need is a so positive as you get ready for the next stage of your lives.

June in Jerusalem

There is no better place to be than in Jerusalem during the month of June. The weather is glorious with warm days and cool nights. And there is SOOO much going on. Of course it is all happening at the same time so you will have to coordinate your schedules accordingly.
The annual Book Fair opens on June 15th through June 26th. It is held at Gan Hapaamon (The Liberty Bell Park). It is so exciting to be surrounded by books, authors and loads of book lovers. There are bargains to be had and it is a happening not to be missed.

The Jerusalem Celebration of Lights also opens on June 15th and runs through June 22nd. This is the most incredible opportunity to walk through the streets and alleys of the Old City surrounded by the most extraordinary light displays and exhibits.

So look forward to bumping into you and enjoy!!
