To make the chanichim aware of caring for their closet circle

To help the chanich identify what values he cares about most.

Goal: to teach the chanichim a bit about the less-known kind of kavod – kavod to parents,teachers, etc. is obvious, but to your peers there’s a much deeper sense of where kavod comes from.

When Gilad Shalit was 11 years old, he wrote a story about a shark and a fish. 8 years later he was kidnapped by terrorists. Today, 11 year olds are reading his story, hoping for his release.

week the theme is personal values.  Why do you do what you do?  Every day, all of us have to make lots of little choices. We hope that they live up to what we think our values, but we all know that it doesn’t always happen the way we want it to.

Goal: The chanichim will understand that there are levels of giving charity. In addition, they will understand that giving charity is meant not only to help the poor man, but to make us into better and giving people. Finally, The chanichim will internalize that according to Judaism although people have private property, essentially all of their money belongs to God. There are many laws that demonstrate this idea, asking each Jew to give of their own to the weak.
