So how do they choose between semi-finalists? I hope there's something in it for the runners-up. I think it's really awesome that both people we were voting for got in! Though I'm sure there were still others who are pretty disappointed now Such a sad contest when everyone who enters is in need.

I just noticed there was another girl, and looks like she's from Boro Park, I guess we weren't aware. A 9 year old girl.

The Rabbi of our shul posted an update
Thank you so much to ALL of those who voted (and voted...) in support of the Herzfeld family. The efforts of many thousands of individuals inspired a most extraordinary act of chessed (see link below), which we hope and pray will in turn inspire others. While we were initially quite disappointed that the judges did not award the Herzfeld family with a new van, we have since been afforded the opportunity to be reminded of an essential life lesson. Indeed we must always remember that it is the Ribbono shel olam, the true and only Judge, who alone determines the destiny of each and every individual.

Arthur and Esther Herzfeld, of Teaneck, NJ, have four children, all of whom suffer from a chronic, degenerative muscular illness. Each of the children experiences varying degrees of impaired mobility and require significant assistance in carrying out daily functions and routine activities. Their current home configuration does not accommodate the family's extraordinary needs, nor does it allow for a safe and comfortable living environment. The Herzfeld Family Fund has been established in an effort to assist the family in achieving greater success in managing its ever-growing needs.

I just read this morning that a philanthropist stepped in and donated the van for them. Wow!
