A NOTE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
It gives me a tremendous amount of pride to share the following story from one of my daughters who recently returned from visiting ALYN Hospital after spending six weeks as a volunteer in Israel. It is very exciting to see how much she learned about the hospital in a short, 2 ½ hour visit.
PELE CELEBRATES 5 YEARS OF SOLUTIONS
The PELE track of the Innovation Space at ALYN Hospital opened its doors in 2018 and recently celebrated its 5th year of developing personalized adaptive solutions to increase the independence of children with disabilities. Happy anniversary to the PELE team for some amazing accomplishments!
SPOTLIGHT: ALISA'S VISIT TO ALYN HOSPITAL
In June, Alisa Schwartz visited ALYN Hospital at the end of a six-week volunteer trip to Israel. Over the course of a detailed tour of the hospital, she was able to to discover for herself why ALYN is renowned globally for pediatric rehabilitation. In her words, “I was coming off a high, having finally had the chance to help my country while it is at war. I did not think anything would be able to match that high, but my visit to ALYN only pushed that high, higher.”
