to talk to the chanichim about their leadership; to show them that it’s coming, right around the corner, and there are a couple of things they should be aware of (making it an introduction to the program).

Goal: To get the kids talking about substance abuse and eating disorders, raising awareness and all that, and then to prepare them for dealing with these issues in the future (whether concerning them or a friend).

The Gaon, Rav Moshe Chaim Lau, the Rav of Pietrokov,

Poland, stemmed from a line of 36 generations of Rabbanim. In 1942, the Nazis sent most of the Jews of Pietrokov to Treblinka.

The goal is that the Chanichim will feel part of Am-Yisrael and will understand how big the lost is and how we can help the situation.
