CHANUKAH SUPPORT
TRANSFORM CHANUKAH FOR NEEDY FAMILIES
Your help will make it a real holiday.
Just say the word Chanukah and immediately, those classic associations come to mind: Candles. Oil. Chanukah gelt. Latkes & Sufganiot. Warmth. Joy. Light.
Israeli families in need make those associations too. But actually marking the holiday with them is a different story,
For Israeli families living in poverty, especially those in broken homes or suffering the loss of a parent, the eight nights of Chanukah are not especially joyful -they aren’t unlike the other nights of the year.
They're just eight more nights of hunger and need.
Eight more nights of cold, without a winter blanket or heat inside the house, lacking a good coat outside it.
Eight more nights of wishing life could be different-that it could be the same kind of life they see in homes
of friends and neighbors.
Families are struggling on a daily basis, especially due to the war, the significant increase in food prices and costs for other basic expenses.
Let's provide some brightness for as many families as possible. Choose from our donation options above or from our numerous social service programs that support impoverished households with assistance for myriad needs, bringing light and joy back into their lives during the eight nights of Chanukah and throughout the rest of the year. We also have programs aimed at breaking the cycle of poverty, lighting the way towards more promising futures.
This year help American Friends of Yad Eliezer | B'ezri give a Chanukah gift that makes a real difference to families living with real need.
