SUMMARY:Camp Lavi Challah Bake 2026

Through age appropriate conversations\, one can begin to learn the tools to protect their health —impacting not only their own lives but future generations as well. \nWe invite you to sponsor your child’s participation in this special event. 100% of the proceeds will benefit Sharsheret’s life saving programs in both the United States and Israel. Through these programs\, Sharsheret provides emotional support and mental health counseling\, education\, financial assistance\, and peer support to those faced with or at increased genetic risk of breast cancer and ovarian cancer. All of Sharsheret’s services are free\, confidential\, and open to anyone in need. \nBy participating in this meaningful event\, our campers will gain a deeper understanding of the role this incredible organization plays within the Jewish community.
