The power of joy...

Zichron Menachem organizes parties throughout the year, Melaveh Malka parties on Saturday night, Rosh Hodesh parties each month, parties for holidays and more.

Magnificent birthday parties are held for each child, with a unique theme adapted individually to make each child happy and feel special. Here you can see them smiling from behind a cloud of pain.
Zichron Menachem’s Melaveh Malka parties are known far and wide. For almost ten years, Zichron Menachem volunteers along with a Klezmer band have met every Saturday night to create a very special atmosphere and put music in everyone’s hearts in the pediatric oncology ward and the children’s homes. The outpouring of joy from these parties sweeps up not only the ill children, but also their parents and the hospital staff.

Esther is ten years old. After a long period of difficult chemotherapy treatments, she began to fall into despondency. Even the best of the volunteers were unable to cheer her up. She began to withdraw into herself, cutting herself off from those surrounding her.

A telephone call from her father one fine Sunday morning showed us that even if the results of the Melaveh Malka party were not evident on the spot, something had entered her heart and left its mark on her soul. Esther had asked to have a Melaveh Malka party just for her in her own room the following week, related the happy father. “She learned Zichron Menachem’s theme song – Together we shall overcome – and she wants to sing it with the boys next week.” The next Saturday night, the medical staff was stunned. Esther stood up on a chair all by herself and sang for the boys, clapping her hands in joy.

“You have saved her!” exclaimed the overjoyed parents.
