The contributions of longtime supporters Jeremy and Amy Lubcher were recognized with the Pillar of Hope Award, an honor given to those whose ongoing commitment sustain the optimism of the organization´s young clients and their families. Jeremy is a veteran Campaign chair whose work on the floor of the COMEX has educated and motivated many members to become involved. The Lubchers are frequent visitors to Camp Simcha, Chai Lifeline´s overnight camp for children with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses.
Recalling a recent conversation, Samuel Zaks, executive director, development, quoted the honoree. "Jeremy told me that giving to Chai Lifeline 'is probably the best thing I´ve done in my life.' That is the caliber of the Lubchers, and indicative of the reason we are honoring them tonight."
"It´s great to make a difference. Once you get involved, you can´t help but enjoy helping other people," asserted Mr. Lubcher.

Since 1987, Chai Lifeline's mission has been to restore the light of childhood to children whose innocence ended when life-threatening or lifelong illness was diagnosed.

Through programs that address the emotional, social, and financial needs of seriously ill children, their families, and communities, Chai Lifeline restores normalcy to family life, and better enables families to withstand the crises and challenges of serious pediatric illness.
