TO THE EAST BRUNSWICK COMMUNITY:

On January 18th, I will be running a marathon in

Bermuda to raise money for an organization that is

very dear to my heart, Kids of Courage.

What is Kids of Courage? This unbelievable

organization is a groundbreaking, all-volunteer not-

for-profit that provides support to sick Jewish

children and their families, 365 days a year. Kids

of Courage is committed to helping critically ill

children disconnect from their daily struggles and

to give them the opportunity to feel like a healthy

child. With the help of an unbelievable team of

doctors, nurses, and counselors, the kids travel

and bond together as they experience trips of a

lifetime (not to mention a week-long stay in sunny

Florida!)

We are hoping to raise $3,700 and we are so close

to accomplishing this goal! If you would like to

help us, there are three ways to donate:

By credit card:

http://raceforcourage.org/race/789-gabriella-

noveck/profile

By check: Kids of Courage, 445 Central Avenue,

Suite 216, Cedarhurst, NY 11516 (Memo: Noveck

Twins’ run)

By phone: 516-612-8844

Thank you for your support!

Best,

Gaby Noveck

P.S.- EVERY dollar counts!!!
