We, the members of Garin Ein Hashlosha, seek your support during these unimaginable times. In 2016, we left our homes in the United States to enlist in the Israel Defense Forces. As part of a Garin, we were given a new Israeli home on a small Kibbutz next to the Gaza Border: Kibbutz Ein Hashlosha. The members of Ein Hashlosha welcomed us with the warmest of arms. They opened their homes to us for Shabbat, they hugged us on our way to our bases, they shared their stories of fleeing South America for lives free from antisemitic persecution, they adopted us into their families. They are our families.

We will not retell the unspeakable atrocities that inflicted our beloved Ein Hashlosha on October 7th, 2023 -- of families torn apart, mothers ripped from their children, beautiful souls slaughtered, innocent lives dragged by Hamas terrorists into Gaza. Instead, we ask that you consider donating to supply emergency shelter and supplies to the Ein Hashlosha community. Each donation will go directly to Ein Hashlosha. Together, we will rebuild, and we will prevail.

In solidarity,

Garin Ein Hashlosha, 2016
