D20: Shalva
The money that USY allocates to Shalva – The Center for Mentally & Physically
Challenged Children in Israel assists the institution by funding its various
therapeutic programs. Money by USYers has helped Shalva purchase computer equipment,
musical instruments for their music therapy program, even items for their drama
therapy program – just to name a few. If you're interested in aiding the
education and well-being of children with disabilities, you should consider
looking into Shalva when your chapter decides where it is going to allocate
its money.
