Photo Memory of the Week
Quote of the Week
"Our last five minutes on earth are running out. We can spend those minutes in meanness, exclusivity, and self-righteous disparagement of those who are different from us, or we can spend them consciously embracing every glowing soul who wanders within our reach – those who, without our caring, would find the vibrant, exhilarating path of life just another sad and forsaken road." - Alice Walker

Lighting a Candle
Website: The OneFamily Camp Timberlane program uniquely mirrors the State of Israel's demographic breakdown, given that terror in Israel impacts the entire population. Each camp year, the children that join us, tragically, but inspirationally, include a mix of kids of Druze, Bedouin, Indian and Ethiopian heritage, and include Jews, Muslims and Christians. We are OneFamily.
