An awesome group of volunteers and friends of ADI took a typical Sunday and turned it into a day of fun, exercise, awareness and fundraising! These super-stars from Maccabi GB organized a Spin-a-thon to benefit ADI, cycling a collective 3,075 miles, as though they were riding from England all the way to ADI’s residential facility in Jerusalem!

They spread the word about ADI and raised more than £2,600 for ADI’s amazing kids.

Please contribute to help them reach their goal of £3,000:

We need your support!

By donating to ADI Israel, YOU will help us meet our goal to enable each child, regardless of the severity of disability.

🤯 WHAT A MONTH! ♿💚 Thank you for helping us make this the BEST #JDAIM EVER! From wonderful events at ADI Jerusalem and ADI Negev-Nahalat Eran to special disability inclusion programming across North America and the United Kingdom to longtime supporters spreading awareness via social media, we feel so connected to our global ADI family at a time when we could feel so distant. We are so grateful for the partnership and support of exceptional individuals like Joseph & Sue Ferrara, their children, Craig Pearson & Terri Ferrara Pearson, and all of their amazing grandchildren who...

🏆🎉 𝙒𝙄𝙉𝙉𝙀𝙍! ♿💚 More than 100 students from across North America submitted laudable entries, but 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗲𝘆 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗼 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗥𝗼𝗰𝗸𝘃𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲, 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘆𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱, 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 $𝟭,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗣𝗥𝗜𝗭𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗥 𝗼𝗳 ‘𝗔𝗗𝗜’𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲’ – our #JDAIM accessible design contest for students grades 4-12 that spotlights the inaccessibility of our world and our communal responsibility to make a change.

Lindsey Shapiro, a 6th grader at Charles E. Smith Jewish Day School, won the contest with an entry entitled ‘Safe-T-Tape,’ a tape-like product with bumps that can make dangerous or unfamiliar spaces more accessible to people who are blind or visually impaired. This easy-to-use dispenser of tactile ground surface indicators, like those found on city streets and subway platforms, represents a real solution for making indoor and outdoor locations safer and easier to navigate for people of all abilities.

On Sunday, February 28, ADI’s panel of experts, including members of ADI’s professional staff, innovation journalists, and specialists in the field of accessible design, met with the top five finalists and their parents via Zoom to discuss their entries in greater detail. The proceedings concluded with Shapiro being crowned the contest winner and presented with the $1,000 grand prize, a gift from the Avraham and Esther Klein Young Entrepreneurs Fund.

We are blown away by the consideration and creativity of each and every one of our student participants, the newest members of the ‘maker movement.’ Their brilliant innovations make it clear that they are using their hearts and minds to consider the experiences of others, and that we are on the right track to spreading awareness and creating a better and more caring world! 🌎❤
