The family of our dear friend and Highland Park resident
Howard Beyer, Z"L has created The Howard L. Beyer Memorial Fund at ELEM/Youth and Distress in Israel,
connecting Howard's dedication to issues of troubled
youth and his abiding commitment to Israel. ELEM/Youth
in Distress in Israel is the country’s leading nonprofit
organization serving 20,000 troubled young people and
an additional 100,000 youth who use ELEM online
annually. These teens face tremendous challenges including domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction,
neglect, bullying, homelessness and prostitution, in
addition to the stressors of living in Israel. ELEM's
programs, located in 40 cities, provide a safe space for
Israeli youth and help them to recover, reinvigorate, and
reimagine a positive future for themselves, their family
and their country. All gifts in Howard's memory will be acknowledged both by ELEM and the Beyer family.

EMUNAH
There are, B"H, many new residents in our community
(and even long-timers) who are not aware that they can
do a double chesed almost effortlessly. By ordering a Mother's Day gift basket (usually around $60) for
someone (in the continental US) you want to delight, you
can both brighten someone's day (and if it's your mom,
you can add that to your kibbud em efforts) as well as
send much needed tzedakah to EMUNAH, which supports
senior and day care centers in Eretz Yisrael. EMUNAH is a
particularly worthy tzedakah because it keeps its overhead low with a cadre on committed volunteers, so
the lion's share of donations reach their intended
recipients. If you would like to participate in this
wonderful chesed, send an inquiry to Barbara Kessel at
[email protected] or call Pauline Mykoff at 732 572
0457. Nizkeh lemitzvot!

CHEVRA HATZOLAH OF EDISON TOWNSHIP SEEKS DISPATCHERS AND RESPONDERS
Responders:
"Tomorrow's Technology for Today': We are looking to get
a few first-responders to become EMTs. These individuals
would carry a two-way radio, AEDs, Epi-Pens,
oxygen/trauma equipment, etc., and would be dispatched
by Hatzolah in Edison. The responders need to be male, 18 yrs old, shomer torah umitzvos, and of a proper
hashkafa. The EMT course is free, and runs Tuesday and
Thursday nights near Deal from 6pm - 10:30pm, from Jan
6 - Jun 9. If there are people who are doctors, nurses
(male), etc., who are interested in responding, they are
able to as well. They just need to take some in-house
training in certain skills such as splinting, etc. Day and
night members are both needed. Preference given to those are can be both. Since the class is starting next
month, concrete answers need to be given on attendance,
ASAP.
Dispatchers:
Additionally, we are seeking male or female people to do
dispatching. Available shifts are 12am-6am Sunday-
Shabbos, Sunday 6am - 9pm, and Friday from 9am - Licht Benching. Shifts may be divided, but a minimum straight
period of at least 3 hours is required. Requirements for
dispatching is CPR/First aid at minimum, but dispatchers
may be doctors, nurses, etc. Those that pay for their
training, and remain in good standing for at least a year
are eligible for reimbursement.
