Rabbi Shlomo Braun Visits Aleh Foundation Supporter in Rockville MD.
Rabbi Shlomo Braun, Founder and Director of Aleh Foundation recently made a trip to Washington DC and met with several former associates from the days that he was a congressional staff member.
Online, June 13, 2013 (Newswire.com) - There, he made a presentation about important issues of concern to the Brooklyn Jewish communities, as well as updated them of the unique services Aleh provides for the disabled population.The next stop was Rockville Maryland, where he met Eran Sharon at an elegant restaurant, Motty's Grill. Mr. Sharon, a staunch supporter of Aleh Foundation requested several months ago that Rabbi Braun coordinate a guided tour for him at the Aleh Jerusalem Center to see their unique services first hand.
"It was mostly the smiles of the children," said Eran, in describing his first visit to Aleh. "The welcoming response I got from the youngsters, whose only way of communicating their feelings was through a gesture and a smile, was really heartwarming." "I was greatly impressed by the immaculate condition and the personal attention given to each of the children by the staff, at the same time I was distraught to see that so much suffering and severely deformed and sick children exist."
Eran agreed that while the professional staff at Aleh work 12-hour shifts 4 days a week, he could never have done this type of work for even one hour of his life. Sharon was very grateful to Rabbi Shlomo Braun that he extended the courtesy of coming all the way to Rockville to personally thank him for his support.
