Throughout the year Achim B’Yachad has several programs and events for children with illness and separate programs for their siblings so they both get their much needed attention.

The annual Bedikas Chumetz Trip is one of the times when we bring them all together so they can bond and have a great time together while parents can prepare for Yom Tov.
Members of the Kids Helping Kids Program were also able to join as a token of appreciation.

The annual Bein Hazmanim teen siblings Nesia took place right after Pesach before the beginning of the new zman. The Nesia was led by Reb Yoel Shmeya (I-Shine Williamsburg Coordinator) and special guest Reb Hershel Fekete.

Over 60 Yeshiva bochurim (Teens) arrived in the morning at Beth Israel Shul in New Heaven, Connecticut where Rabbi Mendel Hecht Shlit”a, Rav of the shul welcomed the bochurim with divrei chizuk and recounted the history of the Beth Israel Shul. Then the bochurim with the volunteers each picked a daf and learned together Meseches Brochos. It was a very moving scene where they all sat together to learn and finish a Mesechta for a refuah shleima for their siblings. Reb Hershel Fekete, made the siyum followed by a seudus mitzvah. A heartwarming kumzits was held with wonder boy Heshy Falkowitz. Then they were off to IT Adventure Ropes Course where they were climbing, flying and basically letting off some steam. The boys went home with smiles and chizuk to last until the next bein hazmanim!
