"and her English has improv-
ed geometrically," Braun
said.
She is now looking for a job
in marketing, rather than her
area of training, low-
temperature engineering.
"She has a driver's license,
and a car, and she gets around
by herself," Braun said of his
wife. "She seems to know how
to do things in America .. .
It's amazing after only four
months."
The Brauns have checked
with the State Department to
see if Svetlana can get a visa

for her Soviet passport to visit
Israel when her parents are
allowed to emigrate. They
were assured that a visa
would only take a few days.
Braun credits Rep. William
Broomfield (R-Birmingham)
for behind-the-scenes work
with the State Department.
Although a number of Con-
gressmen exerted pressure for
Svetlana's release, "Broom-
field has played an important
role in building Administra-
tion support from within" for
Soviet Jewry and divided
spouses.

'Unity Flight' Planned
To Show Israel Support

STAFF REPORT

V

olunteers for Israel
is seeking partici-
pants from all areas of
the country for an emergency,
two-week program in Israel
beginning March 15.
Called the "Unity Flight,"
the participants will
demonstrate American
Jewry's solidarity with Israel,
and help with the work shor-
tage that has resulted from
Israeli citizens' extra reserve
duty in recent weeks, accor-
ding to officials with
Volunteers for Israel.
Lee Shlom, who is coor-
dinating the local effort on
the project, said that six
volunteers from the Detroit
area already have committed
to the program. She hopes to
sign up many more before em-
barking on the journey
herself. Volunteers for Israel
hopes to enlist 450 volunteers
to fill one El Al plane.
Participants will leave for
Israel on March 15 and
return two weeks later with
the option for an extended
stay, at no extra cost, to April
4 or 6. The cost for the pro-
gram, which includes round-
trip airfare from New York to
Tel Aviv; room and kosher
board, is $275. An additional
$23 is needed to cover the cost
of airport taxes.
A non-profit, apolitical and
non-denominational
organization, Volunteers for
Israel will provide travelers
with a variety of duties upon
their arrival in Tel Aviv. Par-
ticipants will work in
hospitals and kitchens,
among other duties.
This will be Shlom's second
trip with Volunteers for
Israel. Her first planned trip,
last November, was under-

taken because "I wanted to
accomplish something and
give of myself. It's a mitzvah
to be able to go and do
something. It's my kind of
tzedakah."
Shlom will present a video
program about the Volunteer
for. Israel program 2 p.m. on
Sunday at the Maple/Drake
Jewish Community Center.
Those interested in joining
the March 15 trip should be
prepared to present a health
insurance card, three
photographs, a passport and a
certified cashier's check to
cover the cost of the program.
For information, contact the
Israel Program Center,
661-5440, or Lee Shlom,
661-4285.

Toronto (JTA) — Your son
has had his ritual circumci-
sion and now what do you do?
A Woodbridge, Ont. couple is
marketing what it hopes is an
answer — the Bris-kit.
Cheryl and Arthur
Schwartz have placed 25
sterilized gauze pads, gauze
bandages, white petroleum
jelly, scissors and alcohol
swabs in their red-and-white
plastic kits.
They own a firm that
distributes first aid and safe-
ty equipment.
The couple, parents of two
children, came up with the
kit when their son was born
in 1986. "We didn't know
which medical supplies to
have on hand following the
operation," Cheryl said.
"We assumed our mohel
(ritual circumciser) would
bring a week's worth of sup-
plies, but he only brought
what he needed."
