Moishe Alexander Donates to Zareinu Educational Centre
Moishe Alexander and Canadian Funding Corporation donated $72.00 CDN to Zareinu Educational Centre (http://www.zareinu.org) in 2008.
About Zareinu:
Zareinu is a Jewish Day School and Treatment Centre, which provides special education and individualized therapies to children with a wide range of physical and developmental challenges.
We believe that “special” children are valuable members of the community and have the right to receive an adapted education, opportunities for improving life skills, communication strategies, and respect for their individual strengths. We believe the family is an integral part of our efforts and their input is treated with respect. We encourage parental participation in planning individual programs. We believe that every child has potential. We believe in a coordinated, cooperative effort to develop and provide therapies and learning strategies that will improve the quality of life for each child and family.
We strive to battle prejudice and encourage inclusion through opportunities for supported integration whenever possible.
We advocate for acceptance of children with special needs in the community.
Our teachers, therapists and consulting specialists are experts in their respective disciplines. Our team is multifaceted, ensuring that we offer opportunities for children to take their first steps, communicate their first words, share a smile and reach for that important hug.

About Sick Kids:
SickKids Foundation is the largest non-governmental granting agency in child health in Canada. Established in 1972, SickKids Foundation has granted over $500 million to The Hospital for Sick Children and over $60 million to researchers across the country.
Through its National Grants Program, SickKids Foundation invests $4 million annually across Canada in paediatric research, focusing on issues important to children’s health which have not been addressed elsewhere.
Our mission is to inspire our communities to invest in health and scientific advances to improve the lives of children and their families in Canada and around the world.
We have invested our community’s contributions in world-leading children’s health research and care. We believe there is no one else in Canada as dedicated as we are to eliminating the gap between what is happening in child health research, education and training, and what should be happening.
