Help our family in the South of Israel rebuild

Hi my name is Shelley and my husband Simon has family from Sderot and Kfar Azza in the South of Israel. Unfortunately, their cities and homes were tragically destroyed during the attacks on October 7th by Hamas terrorists who slaughtered their neighborhoods in the most inhumane way. Thank G-d they are safe, but sadly many of their friends are not. They've been spending the last 10 days going from funeral to funeral and processing horrible unimaginable trauma their community endured. Our cousin Aviya, her husband Ido and their 2 girls lost everything. Our cousin’s wife Moran, gave birth to a baby girl 1 day before the attack. They lost their jobs, their home, their belongings. Let's help them rebuild their lives for their beautiful children, every dollar counts! I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Please see below for personal notes from each family sharing their story:

Hello Everyone,

My name is Aviya Shamriz and I’m from Kibbutz Kfar Azza, the kibbutz that was destroyed and wiped out. My family's home was destroyed together with friends and family members who were murdered in the atrocities that occurred there.

My husband Ido was hiding for more than 24 hours from Hamas Terrorist's whose gunfire was right outside the bunker door, until help arrived that brought him back to us!

His brother Alon is still missing and might be dead or kidnapped (with the help of Hashem's help, we hope to hear good news) PLEASE pray for Alon Ben Diklah for a safe return!

We lost everything we own and are left with nothing but the clothes on our backs. We are young parents, and both of us have served our country in the Israeli army for more than 3 years.

We have 2 little girls, one two years old and the other six months old, crushed mentally and physically,

‏We lost our loved ones in the shocking murders that happened to us in the kibbutz. We managed to be saved by a great miracle but we were left with nothing

‏If you would please find it in your heart to help us Re-build our home and help get us back on our feet

With much love Aviya & Ido Shamriz

Hi my name is Lioz Haham, a 29 year old resident of the city of Sderot, which is near Gaza. I'm married to Moran, 24 years old and we gave birth to our baby girl on October 6th. We found ourselves in a difficult situation where we have no home to return to, our city is destroyed. We have no income, we lost our jobs, we have a newborn baby as need as much help as possible. I am an x fighter in the Israeli special forces and I served my country of Israel for 7 years. Today when I am a father to a little girl who was born just 1 day before the disaster began, I am asking for help from anyone who can help us, any donation of money even the smallest will help in order to survive the times we are facing. I thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who will be part of the help even the smallest one.

Thank you, Lioz and Moran Haham

Thank you all
