Jack Strong

Jack Silver is 16 and lives in Woodcliff Lake. He is full of life and is friend to many in our community. Jack loves baseball and is an avid Yankee fan. He is a juinor at Pascack Hills and has served on the leadership board of our CTeen chapter for years and volunteers at Friendship Circle. 

Last weekend we learned of terrible news: Jack was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Bone Marrow Failure. 

Jack has always been there for us, now its our time to be there for him and support him as he beats this illness. We know he can, and with G-d's help, we know he will. 

His Hebrew name for prayer is: Lior Chaim ben Rivka Devora

Our teens have collected a few ways you can help. 

1. Choose a Mitzvah

In Jewish tradition we believe strongly in the power of positive action to heal. Every good deed can make a difference. Choose a mitzvah you commit to doing in Jack's honor to bring some extra light and support.
