Fly with HERJC for the Children of Haiti
By the Flyer Family and Friends
In light of the profound devastation and destruction from the recent earthquake in
Haiti, my sister, brothers, close friends the Siegel’s, and HERJC have joined together to
raise money for the children of Haiti. As you may know, there are a large number of
orphans in Haiti. Now, more than ever, these children and the orphanages they live in
need our help.
Through many avenues, we will be raising awareness about this tragic situation. We
humbly ask for your help and support. Please donate whatever you can in the form of
a check payable to HERJC. Every 2 weeks, HERJC will send a check to Save the
Children—a respected and established charity that is working closely with the children
and orphanages in HAITI. (100% of your donation will be put to good use).
If you are interested in joining the team or becoming a corporate sponsor,
please e-mail us at flyforthechildren@gmail.com.
With deepest gratitude, thank you for your support—Hayley Flyer, Emily Flyer,
Jeremy Flyer, Rabbi Andrew Warmflash, HERJC Religious School Director David
Woolfe, the entire HERJC staff, Mark Guttentag and Allison Siegel.
Corporate Sponsors—Richie’s Bagels, 151 Main Street, East Rockaway and Vision
Finders, 141 Main Street, East Rockaway.
