Avnet Ohel - Campers

On Friday, July 24, HALB’s Avnet Country Day School Woodmere Campus joined with Ohel Children’s Home & Family Services at the Lawrence Yacht and Country Club for Avnet’s Golf-4-Ohel event.

The money raised from the golf event will go to Ohel’s Simcha Fund, which provides money to help those in our community who are struggling with the costs of making a simcha. The money will go specifically to foster children having barmitzvahs this summer, as well as two children in a domestic-violence shelter.

Under the leadership of director Jack Tarzik and associate director Rabbi Jeremy Fine, Avnet’s Woodmere Campus once again participated in this unique chesed program to engage their boys this summer.

The golf event included various contests, including a chipping, driving, and closest-to-the-pin competition, with great prizes and delicious food being served throughout the event. “The campers at Avnet are so enthusiastic about this chesed project that supports the children and families of Ohel,” said Meital Cafri, Ohel’s events coordinator. She continued, “Avnet’s Golf-4-Ohel event is a great way to introduce children to the amazing work that Ohel does.”
