ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION

Founded in 1987, Chai Lifeline is the international health support organization whose emotional, social, and financial support enables ill children, families, and communities to cope with the crises and daily challenges of serious pediatric illness.

GRANT PURPOSE

i-Shine is an after-school program that provides support, mentorship, Jewish experiences, and friendship to  hundreds of children whose lives have been disrupted by the illness or death of a parent or sibling.

Thanks to the generous support of The Foundation, children impacted by illness receive the camaraderie, attention and support they need to thrive. At i-Shine, the center of attention is on the kids.
