Dear ESRA Family,
The phrase 'ביחד ננצח' (together we will win) is prominently displayed on nearly every wall, greets us on every bus, and adorns bulletin boards. It is a constant reminder of what we already know - the incredible power of a community.
The ESRA community is no exception.
Your commitment has been unwavering, and with your support, we have assisted 240 families directly impacted by the war within 72 hours through the ESRA Welfare Fund, with an emergency lifeline of NIS 380,000.
The strength of our community has shone brighter than ever. Each and every one of you is doing the best you can to help, some open their homes, donate goods, and others volunteer to help provide personal support and educational reinforcement for evacuated families.
Furthermore, our impact extended to 12,700 English speakers who benefited from ESRA services and activities. These included 70 free events, workshops, webinars, and interactive sessions aimed at providing social and cultural relief. We offered free sessions with professionals to deliver reliable and relevant knowledge, equipping individuals with the tools to cope with trauma and enhance resilience.
We have been working hand in hand with official social workers, Ministry of Education inspectors, and Aliyah coordinators from the very beginning of the war. We thank our partners for their work around the clock, helping us navigate ESRA's war efforts to the right places and people.
