Ezrat Achim (Israel) 
Resources for hundreds of refugee families now staying in Beit Shemesh

We are arranging for food, clothing, bedding, toys, and more for families from the South who are trying to escape, or who have already come to Beit Shemesh with none of their belongings. We’re also helping soliders by providing them with items they specifically request, and delivering to their bases. We are looking for volunteers to:

  • Drivers to rescue families from their homes (in the south) and bring them to Beit Shemesh. Or to deliver goods to bases.
  • Hosts willing to let people stay in their home or apartment
  • People to cook meals
  • Hebrew speaking therapists
  • Writers for promotional material

To volunteer contact: office@ezratachim.com
