Celebrate Passover by Supporting Families in Need

Dear Friends,

As we approach the special season of Passover, a time of reflection on our redemption, let us also turn our hearts towards those in our midst who are struggling to see the light of hope in their lives. This year, we are committed to embodying the heart of Passover through our initiative to provide 1,500 families with the necessary resources to celebrate this pivotal holiday.

Passover is a celebration of freedom and deliverance, echoed in the famous saying, "Ha Lachma Anya" ("This is the bread of affliction"), a passage found in the Passover Haggadah and includes the invitation for all who are hungry to come and eat and all who are in want to come to celebrate the Passover. This year, our mission is to extend this invitation far and wide, ensuring that families, including those affected by the heartbreak of October 7, can partake in the Passover feast with dignity and joy.

Among those we are privileged to serve is S., a courageous single mother from Ma'ale Adumim. Left to fend for herself and her six children, S. faced the daunting task of navigating life and bureaucracy without the knowledge or resources to do so. Her story is one of resilience; she's taking classes and learning how to handle basic life skills. Through your support, VFI in collaboration with the welfare department, is helping her to slowly rebuild her life and empower her.

S.'s gratitude for the support she received from VFI—a food basket and a gift card—reminds us of the profound impact of our collective efforts. Her journey from despair to hope mirrors the Passover story's core message: liberation and renewal.

This Passover, we invite you to join us in bringing light to families like S.'s. Your generous donation will provide essential food and supplies to those in need, helping them celebrate Passover with the dignity and joy everyone deserves. Together, we can ensure that "all who are hungry" come and eat, and "all who are in need" come and celebrate Passover.

Please visit our donation page to make your contribution and dedicate your donation to “Aid to the Poor”. Your donation of $67 will provide food for one family for Passover. Our goal is to raise $100,500 to aid 1,500 families this Passover season.

As we prepare our homes and hearts for Passover, let us remember the power of community and compassion to change lives. May this season of deliverance bring you and your loved ones peace, joy, and the warmth of shared blessings.

With heartfelt gratitude and blessings for a joyful Passover,

Barry & Batya
