Chanukah Campaign - 2024

The month of Kislev is often referred to as the month of Nisim (Miracles). During this month we celebrate the miracle of Chanukah! As the scent of Jelly doughnuts and Latkes fills the air in neighborhoods across Israel, there is a sense of excitement and joy. From dreidel games, to presents, pastries, chocolate coins, and lighting the menorah, there is so much to anticipate!

But as Chanukah, the Festival of Lights, approaches, Israel faces unimaginable hardship. Our brave IDF soldiers and reservists risk everything to secure our homeland and bring our hostages back safely, while their families endure profound turmoil.

Since October 7th, over 12,000 wounded soldiers—active reservists who left their families to protect Israel—are now fighting for their lives in rehabilitation hospitals, with 1,500 suffering multiple injuries. Their families, filled with pain and worry, need urgent support.

THIS is where YOU come in, and THIS is why we are here!

Our mission at JAR is to ensure that the families of the IDF Reserve soldiers have basic food and necessities in order to feed their families and join in the celebration of the festival of lights!

Your help can be the light that sustains them. By sending Food Cards, you ensure these heroes and their families have food on the table and know their sacrifices are appreciated.

This Chanukah, let us shine the light of hope into their lives, honoring their courage and illuminating the holiday with gratitude and pride. Join us in supporting our soldiers and their families by donating Food Cards today! In the merit of your generosity and support for our IDF soldiers and their families may the light of Chanukah light up your homes and hearts with peace, strength, and joy!

Please donate Food Cards for needy families in Israel for the Chanukah holiday! For:

IDF soldiers,

Active IDF reserves, 

IDF Families,

Injured IDF soldiers

Attached is a video showcasing IDF reservists on the northern border with Syria, lighting up with joy as they receive Food Cards for their families. The video illustrates how a small gesture can really make a big impact for our soldiers! 

This is just one base’s reaction, but I’ve visited many during the war, and their gratitude and resilience are truly inspiring. Am Yisroel Chai!

     

Our IDF Soldiers

Far too many of our mornings are spent repenting over heartbreaking news of heroic IDF soldiers we have lost in fighting terror! Every one of them is a painful and irreplaceable loss, felt deeply by all of us as a nation!

It is during this critical time that our brave IDF soldiers and their families carry an unimaginable weight as they dedicate their lives to protect the safety and security of Israel! 

As they fight for our beloved country the least we can do is ensure their families are cared for! That is why it is critical to donate Food Cards to ensure that these families have food on the table as their loved ones stand on the front lines, or as they fight for their lives in rehabilitation hospitals. 

When you donate Food Cards you are actually stepping forward to provide for our soldiers and their families and it is more than Tzedakah; but also a powerful demonstration of your appreciation and unity!

By donating Food Cards, we do more than just meet a physical need for sustenance; we send a clear message that they are not alone, that the entire nation of Israel stands behind them, reminding them that their sacrifices are not taken for granted, and giving them the courage to keep fighting for our brethrens safety!

Donate Food Cards today and take a stand in supporting our IDF soldiers and their families by ensuring they are sustained and cared for as they fight our fight!

In the merit of your generosity, may our hostages come home now! May our soldiers come home safely and successfully! May all of Am Yisrael only know peace and blessings from here on!

I wish to help my brethren in Israel with pre-paid Food Cards for:

IDF soldiers,

Active IDF reserves, 

IDF families

Injured IDF soldiers

the HOLOCAUST SURVIVORS in ISRAEL!

As the world marks Holocaust Memorial Day, a generation whose childhood was taken by the Nazis is spending its final years struggling with hunger, and homelessness. We are finally shed a bit of light as the major Tv news MAKO has put out a campaign to eradicate poverty for Holocaust survivors living in Israel, AND HAS CHOSEN THE "Food Card" as the proper way to ensure that they have food and at the same time are treated with dignity and respect!
I ask you to help us make a change, let's give up on that extra cup of coffee, that extra slice of pizza
