Dear Friend,

As we look forward to Passover, and our families gathering together at the Seder meal, we celebrate our history and survival despite all odds. We retell the story of going from slavery to freedom, which has not been an easy journey.

Especially now, as the casualties from Swords of Iron continue to mount up, we are struggling to meet the extra need, within complex challenges of planning in a time of war.

Whether a soldier was wounded as far back as the War of Independence in 1948, in the Yom Kippur War, or last week, each of these heroes deserves our full support and care. It is our responsibility at Beit Halochem to meet and serve an ongoing influx of those injured men and women who have had their normal lives completely disrupted.

At our centers in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and Beer Sheva, we are expecting up to 3,000 newly wounded. This requires extensive expansion of our programming, staffing, and facilities, as well as adding new programs to deal with PTSD and other traumas. Our new “Brothers for Life”program helps ensure that none of the new members of Beit Halochem will suffer alone from PTSD.

The welfare of these men and women, injured while in military service, should be a prime concern for each of us at this time. Helping every individual heal and rebuild their lives is what we do at our Beit Halochem rehabilitation centers in Israel.

KOL ISRAEL AREVIM ZE L’ZE = ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE.

Often their severe wounds are reflected in missing limbs, blindness, use of a wheelchair, and/or severe PTSD. Yet at Beit Halochem there is both help and hope. Previous generations of veterans who have also “been there,” help these newcomers to see that the future begins again now: even the most severely injured can get all the therapies, activities, and programs they might need to live the best life they can. We honor and care for the brave men and women who have sacrificed so much of themselves to protect Israel for all of us.

With your generous support this Passover, we will be able to meet the growing rehabilitation needs of our heroes. Please take the time now, before setting your Seder table, to make your most generous Passover gift to Beit Halochem, be it $36, $72, $118, or another amount, here.

Help them win their war after the war.

They depend on us, we depend on you. We cannot do it without you. THANK YOU!

BEIT HALOCHEM’S SERVICES ARE ESSENTIAL,
AND SO IS YOUR SUPPORT!

Wishing you a Happy Passover,

Michael Leichtling,
Co-Chairman
