Smiling in Safety Outside the Line of Fire

January 12, 2009 / 16 Tevet 5769

 Smiling in Safety: Youngsters from the Sderot area at an outdoor concert Monday (Jan. 12) in the courtyard of the Jewish Agency for Israel in Jerusalem; they were among 4,500 youth who spent the day in the capital as part of a Jewish Agency for Israel initiative funded by the UJC-United Jewish Communities/the Federations of North America to take children and teens for daily outings outside the area under rocket fire.

Jewish Agency Chairman Zeev Bielski welcomes the kids.
