Who Is Watching
The Children?
PHYLLIS MEER SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS
R
ae Sharfman
was honored
Oct. 26 at a Children of
Chernobyl benefit, held at
Seaholm High School in
Birmingham.
The event, which attracted
more than 400 people, featured
an Orthodox Israeli musician,
Ruthi Navon, who sang a variety
of Hebrew, Yiddish and English
songs to an all-women audience.
Children of Chernobyl is an in-
ternational organization provid-
ing safe havens and education for
young people affected by the for-
mer Soviet Union's nuclear
tragedy of 1986. Since its incep-
tion, the group, which was cre-
ated by the Lubavitch movement,
has evacuated more than 1,000
Jewish Russian youth to the vil-
lage of Kfar Chabad in Israel.
In the village, children enjoy
Jewish learning and the healthy
outdoors. It costs about $19,500
to rescue, clothe and educate a
typical child. But some children
have been more adversely af-
fected by the radioactive fallout
and require hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars in medical treat-
ment.
