Recap from Sderot Aid Center

 

The Sderot Aid Center started 2025 with a year and three-month-old war. During the war, out of 28,000 Sderot residents, the city was reduced to 3,000 residents who refused to yield to terrorism and leave their homes. Residents were leaving in fear of what had just happened. Most left with only what they had on or could put in their cars.

Sukkot Cheer

The Sukkot holiday in Israel . . . what does that mean? Gatherings with family and friends in the sukkah (holiday outdoor booth). Just another reason to have appropriate clothing to wear.

In the north of Israel it gets colder at night much earlier than in the central district. Sitting in the sukkah can be too chilling. What is needed is some Autumn clothing in the dresser.

For new immigrants from Ukraine, there’s not much at all in the dresser, if they even have a dresser. They are in need of this clothing not only for themselves, but for all their children, all their family.

Because of you, Israelis are getting clothed. They are thrilled to get what they need for Sukkot. Thank you!
