It's a new year. We're still at war and Israel’s soldiers need your generous help more than ever.
Help us meet our September 30th deadline!
Imagine what must go through the mind of a needy IDF soldier right now,
away from his family, fighting to protect Israeli lives but also worrying
about the approach of the High Holidays and all the costs that brings.
Now imagine the reaction of that same soldier, upon receiving gift cards worth hundreds of shekels
for use at a major supermarket chain, in time for Yom Tov.
Escalated food prices and increased costs of living. Absent soldier-fathers/spouses and diminished incomes. Injuries and hospitalizations.
These, plus numerous other war-related challenges and expenses are making the High Holidays especially difficult for soldier-families in need this year.
So American Friends of Yad Eliezer | B'ezri is expanding our Holiday Relief Program for IDF Soldiers to bring increased tzedaka support that will enable them to buy food for the Yomim Tovim. We need your help!
Once again we are partnering with a N.Y. based foundation in our crucial matching program.
We're urgently working to raise $250,000 by September 30 that will be doubled to $500,000, benefitting 3,030 soldiers including:
-those from disadvantaged homes
-married soldiers who can’t make ends meet for their families
-lone soldiers who have no family support
We are also raising an additional $200,000 to help another 1,200 reservist soldiers.
That's $700,000 in aid for 4,230 struggling soldiers throughout Israel distributed in the form of supermarket gift cards,
so they can shop for holiday foods including meat, chicken, wine, apples & honey, pomegranates plus other items they need for their families- and pay for them all with dignity.
With your help we will completely transform the new year in thousands of households!
Please join us and we'll bring relief, a feeling of normalcy and a feeling of dignity to 4,230 soldiers.
Help them celebrate the High Holidays as they sacrifice so much, to protect and defend us.
