A NOTE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
November: A Time for Gratitude
In the United States, November is a month dedicated to giving thanks—a time to reflect on the blessings in our lives.
Here at the American Friends of ALYN Hospital, this November has offered us even more reasons to express our gratitude. This year, we completed an incredible Wheels of Love Bike Ride in Israel, raising nearly $2.7 million, to date, to support the children at ALYN Hospital. For more details about this inspiring event, please see the article in this newsletter.
GIVING TUESDAY
DECEMBER 3, 2024
CELEBRATING HOPE, HEALING & HISTORY
This Giving Tuesday we are focusing on Hope, Healing and History combining the celebration of American Friends of ALYN’s 90th anniversary, the hospital’s long history of compassionate care, and the hope that this provides to our patients and their families.
WHEELS OF LOVE: 2024
Wheels of Love 2024 took place from November 11-15. This year’s ride was held in memory of Yakir Hexter, z”l, who fell in battle in Gaza in January. In a tumultuous year when every other ride in Israel was cancelled, over 300 riders came together to support ALYN Hospital, to support the people of Israel, to support each other.
