$11,000 Sister City of Kiryat Motzkin

In our sister city of Kiryat Motzkin, we provide critical funding for two programs.  One of these works with Holocaust survivors.  The other one deals with at-risk teens and provides them with leadership skills.  This funding ensures that both these programs continue to have a significant impact in Kiryat Motzkin.

$7,000 will construct a new IDF lounge in Hebron for Israeli soldiers

At the top of the mountain in Hebron (home to the burial site of our Matriarchs and Patriarchs) is an IDF base.  The soldiers who serve at that base currently have no place to spend time when they are not on duty.  This funding would take an existing space and convert it to a lounge for them with furniture, a TV, X-Box, and other things to ensure they have a nice place to rest and relax when they are off duty.
