Allan M. Support For Israel

As we make our donations to tyhe Shul's Maos Chittim campaign, perhaps we should also keep in mind Lone Soldiers of the

IDF, as well as poor soldiers who don’t have the means to purchase the basic needs for Pesach.

IDF soldiers are constantly standing guard, putting their own lives on the line in to order protect Israel and allow all of us to be

free and safe.

Several organizations are providing a means for us to donate to help in supplying families of IDF soldiers with goods and food

that will allow them to enjoy Pesach without worrying about their financial situation. It is simply inconceivable to think that

any IDF soldiers, who put their lives on the line to protect all of us, cannot enjoy the holiday due to financial difficulties.

Standing Together will be providing boxes filled with food and sundry items to the families of our IDF soldiers who cannot

afford them, so that they too can celebrate Passover without having to worry about their financial situation.

The cost for a Passover family package is $60 and it includes everything from Matzah, wine, canned goods and other basic

goods that will allow an IDF family to (better) celebrate the holiday. Their goal is to reach 1,000 families of IDF soldiers and

they are asking us to please join in this very important campaign and demonstration of support for those who are putting their

lives on the line to defend Israel.

You can donate at http://www.stogether.org/the-idf-passover-campaign-the-most-important-thing-you-do-today/

United with Israel provides a means to send Passover Food Packages to Israeli Soldiers. Many soldiers spend the Passover

holiday with needy families back home. Join them in sending Passover packages and holiday greetings to IDF soldiers and

their families. As a Passover Partner, you can receive a personalized Passover Freedom Certificate and a fabulous IDF

Passover Haggadah from Israel. You can donate at https://unitedwithisrael.net/passover/?c=slider. Please note that United

with Israel’s Passover gift packages for IDF soldiers are not US tax deductible.

Chayal el Chayal will provide the joy of Pesach to more than 650 Lone Soldiers over the course of the Holiday through an

online, tax-deductible donation . Be a partner and share in the merit of sustaining – physically, spiritually and emotionally –

the Lone Soldiers who serve and protect our homeland, by donating online today. You can donate at
