Dear Friend,
With the High Holidays approaching, I find myself taking stock of where we are and what is on the horizon for the coming year. And as we prepare to open the Book of Life, there is an opportunity right now to make twice the impact for Israel’s defenders.
Thanks to the generosity of a dedicated group of donors, every Rosh Hashanah gift will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $350,000.
With a significant power shift underway in the Middle East that will shape the region for years to come, coupled with soaring antisemitism and growing uncertainty and fear in Jewish communities around the world, the mission of Israel’s soldiers is more consequential than ever.
As we reflect on our choices and express our commitments and hopes for the coming year, this is your time to act.
Our soldiers remain on high alert and stretched thin as they protect the Jewish homeland on behalf of all of us. While the IDF initially projected that combat reservists would serve 70 days this year, the reality has been far more demanding, and officers are serving at least 20 additional days. Interrupted lives have become the norm, placing significant strain on soldiers, their families, their businesses, and the entire country.
It is our responsibility to provide our heroes with the support they need while they protect Israel and our future. And with your gift matched, you can help provide twice the strength behind those serving on the front lines and the families standing behind them.
Because of donors like you, they are not alone. Your support funds:
IMPACT! scholarships, allowing soldiers to advance their education, build lives of purpose beyond their service, and develop the knowledge and skills that will help strengthen Israel. These programs represent more than assistance. They create healing, stability, opportunity, and the foundation for a stronger, safer future. And today, your generosity can make twice the difference. |
During the High Holidays, we are reminded that our actions today help determine what will be written in the year ahead. At a moment when Israel and Jewish communities around the world face profound uncertainty, a gift during this season of renewal will help shape our next chapter. You can help a wounded soldier heal, sustain a grieving family, or strengthen a reservist returning home after months spent defending Israel and the values of the free world.
Friend, I hope you will make a meaningful gift today and stand with Israel’s heroes, giving them the strength, dignity, and hope to begin the new year knowing that a powerful community of supporters stands firmly behind them.
May you and your loved ones be inscribed for a year of health, peace, and sweetness. And through your generosity, may our soldiers and their families be blessed with the same.
With heartfelt appreciation,
|
