Chanukah is just a few days away and festivities are well underway. Family gatherings are nearly all�planned out. The anticipation, the Chanukah gifts and the Chanukah gelt � there is just so much for most�of us to look forward to. However, we at Yedid V�Yedid are toiling over Chanukah preparations of our�own. These preparations are not for our families. The preparations are intended for the hundreds of�children in our communities who will be missing a parent this Chanukah. For some of these yisomim�Chanukah is another reminder of their painful loss.
Last year Yedid V�Yedid gifted hundreds of yisomim with a $25.00 Chanukah gelt bank card. Now, Yedid�V�Yedid is getting ready to once again present Chanukah gelt bank cards to the yisomim in our�communities. This year the organization aims to give every child we can a $36.00 Chanukah gelt bank�card. With nearly 1600 children to consider that were drawn from a list of families Misaskim has�serviced, Yedid V�Yedid needs to raise $50,000. We ask you to join us in our efforts. Help us give these�children an opportunity to celebrate Chanukah � just as we do with our own families. To donate please�visit www.misaskim.org/chanukah.php
Yedid V�Yedid, a subsidiary of Misaskim, aims to provide a helping-hand to the yisomim in our�communities. The organization is uniquely positioned to assess the needs of the children and to provide�support services. Among other initiatives, Yedid V�Yedid coordinates Chol Hamoed outings, manages a�summer camp fund, arranges Purim seudos and costumes and distributes gifts for Shevuos.
