Ulla Hadar, our bureau chief in Sha'ar Hanegev, will be participating in a bicycle ride from Metula to Sha'ar Hanegev, a distance of approximately 300 miles, from April 22 to April 29, to raise funds for the construction of a high school that will be able to withstand Kassam rockets fired from Gaza. San Diego Jewish World joins Ulla in requesting that readers consider sponsoring her trek. To do so, please visit the Bike for Sha'ar Hanegev page on the internet.
