Your suggestion of Honoring the memory of my Beloved Brother is appreciated and I thank you for the thought. Attached is a photo of Moshe ben Michael, OBM, and the text of a “Guardian Sponsorship” journal ad. Thank you again and best wishes for a Happy, Kosher Pesach.

Take a deep breath! Yasher Koach to you and all those involved in tonights gala event. I am so lucky that I received the invitation. What a very lovely tribute to your foundation and all the good that it does for so many children and their families. I was happy to greet long time friends Raffi and Ruthie Fouzailoff. We met them years ago at Park East and now their oldest daughter Sheli is a classmate of my Abbey's at Ramaz. We have enjoyed many simchas together including tonight.
As I send this to you, the Ramaz 8th grade is now in southern Israel. I am going to suggest that part of the chesed in Israel in years to come is to visit children at your facilities. They did chesed such as pick potatoes in the north, soup kitchens today, but seeing your special needs children and spending some time with them will have a lasting impression for everyone. I have one more child at Ramaz so hopefully she will meet the children who made the lovely ceramics that were on the tables.
Best Wishes
I am committed to doing my part in helping your foundation in the future.
Dr. Ellen Shapiro

Thank you for your wonderful note which meant a lot to Hadassah and me. We are very proud of Hani, as was her Baba of blessed memory. Please give my regards to Rabbi Braun along with my regrets that the Senate schedule prevented me from being there. It was a great honor for my mother's memory for which I am grateful. I hope the dinner was very successful for Aleh.
All the best,
Joe Lieberman

Hope you're well and that the below raffle was a huge success for ALEH! Could you please advise who won the raffle? Shana Tova to you and your family!

I am engaged in a trial, but I wanted to thank you for your hard work in arranging everything so perfectly. I had a great time and I hope the evening was successful. I neglected to take a booklet home with me and I would appreciate it if you could put one in the mail to me. Many thanks
David Kownacki

Thank you and the foundation for the honor and hospitality. I am humbled. As I said during my speech, " The opportunity to help an organization such as Aleh is a pleasure. Assisting an organization with such a valiant cause enriches both my company and myself. As it is said: One how provides to a noble cause is, himself, a benefactor. for the giver is himself enriched by the opportunity to do good. I look forward to working with the Aleh Foundation in the future" Thank you again and I hope that I was of some help in making the evening a success . Regards

I just wanted to thank Rabbi Braun and your entire team for hosting another meaningful and successful evening for The Aleh Foundation. As always everything was perfect. FYI, this was my fifth time attending this event.
In a year in which the fund-raising environment was significantly challenged we can feel gratified for the effort of your staff and those donors who managed to still find a way to care about the children of ALEH. Our mission for 2010 must be to spread the word to more people that The Children of Aleh's hope and future progress rests in their caring and good heartedness. I promise to do a better job in 2010 for the Children of ALeh.
Peter H. Lichtenberg MBA, CLTC

Thank you for your hard work. It was another wonderful evening for mostly everyone who attended. I hope you turned a reasonable profit! T

Congratulations on tonight's dinner. I am sure it will be a great success, thanks to the efforts of all the dedicated people at Aleh. I regret that I can't be there to join in recognizing the efforts of all of those who contribute to make ALEH the success that it is. The ALEH site in OFAKIM is a flagship to all organization that work with disabled youth. I know the efforts that were, and continue to be, expended to make this an example of quality endeavors. Please express my regrets to Yehuda and Hanya and I can't be there to celebrate with them. My heart is with you. If Yehuda has a moment, I would appreciate talking to him and wishing him congratulations personally. Thank you once again for coming to visit.
Best wishes always.
Sheila Kurtzer

Thank you for such a nice note. I had a lovely time at the event. I enjoyed the speeches, the musician, the food and the company.
I understand that Rabbi Berger is looking for volunteers on the west coast. Aleh is a wonderful organization and I am especially partial because my brother is deaf and blind.
Be well. I am planning to see Ilana today in fact, as I am in NY this week.
Carol Geller

A freilechen Chanukah to you & yours!
A belated sincere thank you for the unbelievable way you treated us at the fabulous dinner. Not only was the dinner beyond expectations, but I got to sit near & meet some wonderful women, the friends & family of Mrs. Marcia Lieberman, a'h. What an honor!
Thank you also for inserting what I noticed were TWO ads(!!) with my name on them. Both pages were big, very pleasant surprises. You are a very special person & an honor to call a dear friend. With Love,
Malkie Lundner

I thought Terry Davies was terrific. Really enjoyed his presentation and was only sorry it was not longer. Clearly an excellent teacher and educator.
Kind regards, David Landau

Thanks for the photos. Once again, Yashar Koach on a job well done! B'vrakhah,
Rabbi Bruce Ginsburg

I hope this email finds you well. I regret that our family will miss this year’s ALEH Foundation Annual Award Dinner as many family members are away. Enclosed is a check for $1800 as our donation instead of a greeting ad in the ALEH Journal. Best regards to Doron and Didi Almog and wishing you much success,

Jamie is always looking out for those who are less fortunate. My father taught me that you have to be charatable in order to be happy with yourself. I honor my parents, teach my children, hopefully leaving a proud legacy.

I'm looking forward to iy'h joining you at the upcoming dinner with Mordechai. It's time to get the unique paperwork into Aleh Foundation. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone & finally seeing Gotham Hall.

On behalf of the Friends of the IDF, it is with great pride to pay tribute to our hero Major General Doron Almog For his years of dedication and support of the State of Israel and the Aleh Foundation. Eran Almog z’l who was the driving force behind the establishment of the Aleh Negev will be missed, but his legend will continue to live by helping our children.

All in all it was really an incredible night! Doron was inspiring! One of my colleagues sent me this: "My only suggestion is better acoustics. It was hard to hear and pay attention to the speeches. Other than that a lovely event for a great organization!" Thank you,

Nonie Darwish ended the evening on a very high note -- she was electrifying! Have a wonderful Shabbos and get a well-deserved rest.... Thank you for your patronage! By the way, I thought Franklin did a magnificent job on the Journal and Program.
Faygie Bienenfeld

Truthfully, I do not attend many events, but I thought yours was stunning. The venue and its view were amazing, the food stations diverse and appetizing, the lighting just perfect for those of us pushing 50, and the program was effective and moving. I was very happy to be part of it! Have a wonderful Shabbat!
Gail Lobel Rand

We had a great time at the dinner – what a beautiful event!
I was just wondering if you ended up putting out a journal as I did not see any at the dinner.
Thanks again for all your help.

I am hoping to attend and I am very honored that you would like to give me the Grandmother award. Thank you very much for thinking of me. I am happy to accept the award. Naomi
I enjoyed the dinner very much. And I have such a cute story to tell you. I have a nine year old granddaughter in Los Angeles who is an exceptional reader. Every Shabbos she reads The Jewish Press. I thought she just reads the children's pages but it turns out that she reads many other articles and the ads.
A few weeks ago she very excitedly said to her mother...Did you see, Savta is the Grandmother of the year. She then showed our daughter the ad. On Monday when she went to school she told her teacher, very proudly,...My Savta is the Grandmother of the Year.
Her teacher asked her what she meant. She said, I read it in the newspaper. She was picked as the grandmother of the year by Aleh.
Her teacher and whole class were duly impressed. Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time last week to discuss the situation we had regarding Liad's Bat Mitzvah's project. I appreciate the response level and the seriousness in which you take the issue. Liad was appreciative of the plaque you provided her.
Thank you again for taking the time and interest
