Orot Scholarship Fundraising Event in Raanana

On Monday Feb 23rd, Orot Israel College held a scholarship fundraising event co-sponsored by Leelah and Joseph Gittler and Tamar and Jonathan Koschitzky at the Gittler home in Raanana.
Both Leelah Gittler (a former Bat Zion Bogeret) and Nomi Spanglet, the director of development and alumni relations made brief introductions.
Rimona Sharvit, an Orot graduate and homeroom teacher and Limudei Kodesh elementary school co-ordinator at Beit Sefer Noam in Raanana, expressed her gratitude to Orot for helping her become the dedicated, passionate and well trained teacher that she is today.
The guest speaker of the evening was Rabbi Yona Goodman, director of the Advanced Institute for Contemporary Education and Jewish Values. The topic of the lecture was: Parenting in Crisis, and included a multimedia presentation addressing the challenges of raising religious teenagers in the modern world.
Orot would like to thank the Gittler and Koschitzky families for their very gracious hospitality as well as for their continued support to the College.
We look forward to having several additional scholarship events during the coming year.
