W hen Noah Ostheimer of White Lake was only 8 years old, he had a dream of helping others. "I had this wish. I wanted to start a charity to help others, but I didn't know how to do it" he said. Rabbi Daniel Syme of Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Township was touched by Noah's vision. He helped him create the Angels and Dreamers Foundation. The Detroit Jewish News sponsors the foundation, and Noah is "chairman of the board" The dream- ers are children who want to perform a mitzvah but aren't sure how to make it happen. The angels are adults who serve as project managers and help those dreams come true. Since the creation of the Foundation, Noah, now 9, has overseen acts of kindness by himself and children around his age. He has taken a Holocaust survivor out to lunch, helped furnish a house for a recently homeless family, raked leaves for an elderly couple and read to sick children at the hospital. His vision for a better world was recently recognized by the Race Relations & Diversity Task Force in Birmingham, which named Noah a Diversity Champion at a recent break- fast at the Community House. Noah is the youngest person to ever receive such an honor. "Noah is empowering children his age to touch and change the world" according to the task force. "There could be no more deserving Diversity Champion!" ❑ If you are a Jewish child between the ages of 7-11 who has a dream to perform a mitz- vah but don't know how to do it, send a letter to jheadapohl® renmedia.us with "Angels and Dreamers" in the subject line. monthly membership dues SOCIAL MEMBERSHIP GOLF MEMBERSHIP To Schedule a Private Tour of Our Facility Contact Bashar o • la a 911111111111Br 18 Hole Championship Golf Course • Updated Ladies Locker Room Newly Renovated Clubhouse • Updated Pool Facilities • Updated Fitness Center Fine & Casual Dining • Clay Tennis Courts ,S7Zezc,zee.‘ „ Yof - - i.er 248.855.1900 zvzvw.tamoshantercc.org 5051 Orchard Lake Road West Bloomfield, MI 48323 JN June 4 • 2015 23
