When Hamas terrorists broke through the border between Gaza and Israel, they attacked communities throughout southern Israel, killing hundreds and leaving families devastated. Homes were invaded, loved ones were lost, and countless families were suddenly forced to face life without a parent, a spouse, or a child.
Amid the tragedy, there were also extraordinary stories of courage.
In one home, children hid as terrorists entered and took their parents hostage. One of the older children managed to call her grandmother in another town and tell her what was happening. The grandmother contacted a nearby neighbor, who was hiding in his own home with his family. Knowing the danger, he chose to leave the safety of his own home and go after the children. He entered the home, found the children, and brought them safely back to his family.
Their parents were murdered.
Stories like this have been repeated across Israel. Families have lost fathers and mothers. Children have become orphans. Widows have suddenly found themselves raising children without the spouse and income they depended upon. Communities have been shattered, and thousands of people have been left trying to rebuild their lives in the midst of war.
This is where we can help.
