Dear WAO Member: It’s time to “Reach Out” and touch the life of an ORT Israel Student May 21, 2001—In conjunction with Jerusalem Day, Women’s American ORT will launch the “REACH OUT TO ISRAEL” Campaign. The goal of the campaign is to have our members write letters to ORT students in Israel to show support for them during this time of conflict and uncertainty. This campaign will also raise public awareness of WAO’s existence and mission and to increase support for students in Israel. Quote from press release: According to Pepi Dunay, WAO’s National President, the campaign’s aim is to put a very human face on the fighting in Israel. “We want to show support for our students during this time of uncertainty,” said Dunay. “As Americans we can’t imagine what it would be like to try to plan a future, let alone lead a normal life under those circumstances.”WAO members (and anyone else interested in participating in the project) may send a letter or postcard to WAO National Office, 315 Park Avenue South, New York, NY 10010, Attn: Reach Out. Alternately, they may e-mail their letter to the WAO at reachout@waort.org. Sample letters are available on the WAO web site, http://www.waort.org/reachout.htm. On the first week of school in Israel next fall, WAO will send all the collected letters and e-mails to the schools. If you would like to find out more about this campaign, please visit our web site at http://www.waort.org/reachout.htm, or contact e-mail rzulawski@waort.org.
