Thanks (and Get Well) to Drew Karchmer

PPI got a big boost from Dre Karchmer in Memphis.

PPI got a big boost from Drew Karchmer in Memphis.

This September, PPI was lucky enough to meet Drew Karchmer, a young activist who was planning a project to benefit PeacePlayers International in conjunction with his Bar Mitzvah. Drew, on a trip to Washington with his grandparents, the Coopers, stopped by the PPI office to meet the team.

Now, PPI is proud to announce that Drew, with the help of his family, has raised over $360 for PeacePlayers International. Unfortunately, a sudden fever knocked Drew out of commission on what was supposed to be the big day for his project, but his mother LaurieĀ  filled in admirably – selling $2.00 tickets at the 21st Annual Memphis Kosher Barbecue for a chance to win an autographed baskteball that the Karchmer’s secured from the Universtiy of Memphis Men’s Basketball Team.

PeacePlayers International would like to thank both Drew and Laurie for their oustanding support, and of course, their teamwork. Get well soon, Drew!
