ORT’s Come ORT and Play 
Fundraiser, sponsored by the 
Suburban Collection, was held 
on Sunday, Sept. 12. The event 
— planned by co-chairs by Jill 
Ingber and Lindsey Maddin, 
along with an enthusiastic 
planning committee — was 
a huge success, raising sig-
nificant funds and attracting 
nearly 600 attendees in support 
of ORT’s critical mission of 
impacting lives through edu-
cation.
Three generations of fami-
lies — children, their parents 
and grandparents, too — had a 

fun-filled day at ORT’s carni-
val, playing games for awesome 
prizes, enjoying the petting zoo 
and pony rides, eating carni-
val treats, getting their faces 
painted, using fun props at the 
photo booth, testing their skills 
at slot car racing and so much 
more!
In addition to the exciting 
activities, there was one lucky 
winner of ORT’s $2,500 cash 
raffle prize, sponsored by 1st 
Securities Mortgage.
Save the date for next year’s 
event, scheduled for Sunday, 
Sept. 11, 2022.
