Yaniv Sharabi with Youth Futures Child

For the last year and a half Yaniv Sharabi has worked as a Trustee with 10 children at the Ha'ari school in Safed and has become very close to the children and their families.  Each week he calls the parents and visits the children's homes frequently.  He knows each child well and is very open to their needs.

Over the last 6 months Yaniv has also established a good relationship with Tova Aharonovitz from the Mediterranean Towers Home for the Aged in Kfar Saba.  Tova and her friends contribute and are active in the community particularly for the Youth Futures project.  Tova knits sweaters for the children and introduced Yaniv to "Grandpa David", who was able to cover 85% of the dental expenses for one of the children who was in desperate need of treatment.

In March, the children in the group visited Tova and David at the old age home.  They were hosted by Tova in her apartment.  David sat at the head of the table and told stories and the children were treated to breakfast, and gave Tova and David pictures they drew for them.

Later in the day the children visited a park, played sports together as a team, had lunch and a great time!
