This past Wednesday. Yeshivah of Flatbush held its first Yachad-Ohel program of the year. These programs are a great way for us, the students, to interact and have fun with people who have mental and/or physcial challenges. The students together with the Yachad and Ohel members paired up and kicked off the night with an exciting game of bingo followed by music videos and dancing in the auditorium.
After a D'var Torah and other introductions we moved the party to the gym where we continued our fun night with singing, rikkidum, and a pizza dinner. It was an amazing night filled with smiles, laughs, and chesed. Thank you Rabbi Besser and the Yachad-Ohel commission for making this program possible. We can't wait until the next event!~ Jackie Fried, Yachad-Ohel Commissioner
