Help me become a Life Coach

Help Hershey (Tzvi) Holczler pay for his tuition to learn Coaching at Refuah Institute. 

Hi , my name is Hershey (Tzvi) Holczler. I live in Jerusalem after making  Aliya from Monsey, NY, three years ago. 

I would like to become a Certified Professional Life Coach so that I will be able to help people, especialy the Jewish youth, improve their lives and become better happier people. A lot of young people are not happy with their lives and very confused and disfunctional. Some become so depressed that in some cases they become suicidal. 

But in order to make it work I need your help. Please help me pay the tuition to join The Refuah Institue Professioal Coach Training Program.  

Your donation will not only help me, it will help poor people who need coaching but can not afford to pay for it. I will "pay it forward": Upon graduation I will provide 80 coaching sessions free of charge to those who cannot afford to pay for coaching.

Thanks and Looking Forward !!!

The Refuah Institute:

Refuah Institute is training religious men and women in the Art and Science of counseling and coaching in a Halacha and Hashkafa compatible manner.

The dedicated and capable students that eager to learn and provide the needed care to the members of their communities are not able to afford the cost of tuition for their requisite training and supervision. Most are both working, caring for their families learning and providing community service all at the same time! The Refuah Institute is an American tax-exempt religious philanthropy. Therefore, it is up to concern compassionate American Jewry to support these dedicated students by providing them with scholarships.

Tuition for each student is $8000. 

Each graduate who recieved a full scholarship will pay it forward by giving at least 80 coaching sessions free of charge to poor people who cannot afford to pay for coaching.
