Sderot, a community in the South of Israel is under a constant daily barrage of Qassam Rocket attacks from Gaza. It time beautiful city, with includes a large population of Jews who (immigrated) to Israel from the former Soviet Union.
Sderot has been silenced, the entire city and daily life brought to a halt. Many say, Sderot is on the front lines and this indicates a serious national failure for the IDF not to defend these attacks on their home soil. LOI along with some Jewish communities have been moved by the plight of Israelis living in daily fear and have made commitments to help.
We recently provided the resources to give emotional assistance and CD's to the children of Sderot, while continuing to provide funding for daily food distribution and to educate children in Tel Aviv and surrounding areas who live in poverty.
