Bnei Akiva LA started their post chaggim events with a bang. The Chevraya Bet got together on Sunday night and bonded at the Santa Monica Pier. It was a fun night for everyone and included pizza, unlimited rides, and an introduction to the long year ahead by Rosh Chevraya Bet Mika Shalom.

This year V’Zach kicked off with a chessed opportunity exciting for all the middle school participants. The kids first gathered in YULA girls where pizza was served, of course!! Next, they wrote thank you cards to the firefighters that protect our community so bravely. They all walked down the street to the #58 firehouse where they had the opportunity to tour the house and deliver special donated supplies and food to them. What a way to kick off the year!!
