Our Boston Board has decided to dedicate a full bomb shelter in the North as a symbol of unity and support.
After meeting with Michal Shiloach at the Global Conference in Denver, we were made aware of the tremendous need for bomb shelters in that region. So we have decided to move the campaign to become one for a full bomb shelter act a cost of 50K and to have installed in the northern region. We hope you can share this page and new campaign with your friends as the shelter will be needed sooner than later due to the impending conflict from Lebanon
As you know, Jewish National Fund-USA is on the ground with communities in the south devastated by the attacks, ensuring immediate needs are met and future requirements are fulfilled. We have worked closely with these southern communities for decades. We know them better than anyone else, and will be there when they start to rebuild their lives in the future.
We support 10 Gaza Envelope communities most closely, including those hardest hit such as Sderot, Kissufim, and others. One of our communities, Kibbutz Reim was the site of the Nova Music Festival where 3,000 young people gathered to celebrate peace and music. So far, 260 attendees are among those massacred by Hamas gunmen and many were kidnapped from the festival and taken hostage.
We are preparing our community partners in the north for the possibility of an expanded conflict by requisitioning portable bomb shelters for community spaces.
Israelis are feeling like this is their 9/11 – yet proportionally at a per-capita scale 6x the magnitude. This attack has decimated many communities, but they will never destroy our spirit. We stand together, as one Jewish community, ready to help Israelis in this difficult time. Am Yisrael Chai.
