We were privileged to provide immediate assistance for approximately 130 people, more than half of them children, during the Second Lebanon War. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we were able to move these families from the volatile north to safe shelter in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem for over one month. There we provided them with meals and a safe and peaceful place to stay, getting much-needed peace and quiet.
Hope for Israel followed up with members of Pastor Joseph Haddad’s congregation who suffered great emotional trauma and financial losses during the war. Thanks to the faithful friends of Hope for Israel, we were able to offer gifts in addition to basic needs.
In addition, we were able to purchase a computer for one family whose son was seriously injured during the war as a result of a falling rocket, and needed a computer to help with his recovery, as well as helping this family to start a new business after losing the first one during the war.
