The “buzz” grows louder on each night of Chanukah as Oorah selects new winners for a free round-trip ticket to Israel in its “8 Nights-8 Flights” on-line raffle.
So far, the winners include: Aliza Stareshefsky from Passaic, NJ and Tziporah Schulgasser from Spring Valley, NY. There are still 6 tickets left!!
The raffle winner is selected at noon each day and posted on the Oorah website. The campaign is part of the launch of this year�s Oorah Auction, which raises money for the organization�s extensive kiruv program.
Although Oorah is famous for its door-to-door outreach and its highly effective methods for bringing public school children into the yeshiva/day school system, it�s kiruv efforts actually extend far beyond those activities. Their programs include everything from at-home learning for the children�s parents to shadchan services for their graduates. Summer camps, tutoring, learning in Israel, kashering kitchens, hanging mezuzos, supplying tefillin, making brissim, Bar Mitzvahs, Sheva Brochos � whatever Oorah�s families need to grow as Jews, Oorah endeavors to supply.
The Oorah Auction is a unique way to raise money for these activities. It is a mail-only auction, which means there�s none of the large overhead entailed in running an event. The prizes are all donated or sponsored, and the writing, photography and graphics are all done in-house. This means that the greatest possible share of the money raised goes straight into its real purpose � bringing Jews back to Torah.� With a wide selection of high-end luxury prizes and a flat entry price of $5,� everyone can participate.
