Israeli winters are filled with volatile fluctuations in temperature. One day requires a parka, and the next day one can dress in a long-sleeve T-shirt, followed by the need for a raincoat the day after. Heavy clothing is essential.
The north, including the Galilee, has considerably the most rain. Mountainous areas like Jerusalem also experience more severe weather.
Israel Relief Aid’s Winter Warm Campaign is dependent on importing aid containers full of clothing, which is sorted by season by aid centers all over Israel. The winter coats and heavy clothing are distributed from September 1 already in the north, through the end of March – seven months each year!
Cartons of jackets are always received with appreciation from the aid containers.
Thanks to you, each container is able be shipped and cleared through the Israeli port, with shipping costs and clearing costs paid.
Our donors make a huge impact on the ground in the Holy Land, blessing tens of thousands of Israelis every winter. Todah rabah– Thank you so much!
