Dear friend,.
Unfortunately, we are all aware of the situation in Eretz Yisrael
We are personally assisting a few of the victims families:
1.The family of the late policeman E.H, who was murdered at the Sderot station on the Shabbos. He left behind a widow and three orphans, and their situation is extremely difficult. There is no one to help or support them. The parents of the deceased are divorced and struggling, and there are no jobs available. They need assistance for the next few months to support the family. The minimum amount required is 12,000 NIS per month.
2.The family of the soldier C.B, who was killed in battle. They are in dire need of both financial and emotional support. The family is shattered, and the parents and siblings require a lot of help. The minimum support needed is 12,000 NIS per month.
3.The S family, whose son Elazar, a 22-year-old, was a student at our yeshiva. He was in a reconnaissance unit and was abducted to Gaza among our captured soldiers. The father has been unable to work for the past half a year. The financial situation is extremely difficult, with many expenses and no income. The estimated amount is 25,000 NIS for basic expenses per month.
4. During the two weeks of fighting, we organized shipments of food, hygiene products, clothing, and more for the soldiers.
5. Many families their children are sitting at home in terrible boredom. We have bought games for them for entertainment, and there is a demand for at least 200 families. Each package costs approximately 300 NIS per family.
Of course, there is much more assistance that we, along with other good people, are trying to provide. There are no words to express our gratitude for all your kindness from the bottom of our hearts.
May hashem bentch you with all the good brachos
