Rebuild Ein HaShlosha Kibbutz

78 years after the Holocaust, our cousin Noam was forced to lock herself into a bomb shelter as Hamas terrorists viciously attacked the Kibbutz where she was volunteering. Her great grandmother, and our great-aunt, Bozsi survived the horrors of Nazi Germany and was close with our grandfather throughout their lives. If you are looking for ways to help communities in Israel, Noam is trying to raise funds to rebuild her Kibbutz— please follow this link. More information on Noam’s story is in the note from her mother, Almog, below.

My beloved grandmother survived the Holocaust against all odds.

She went through Auschwitz and Bergen Belsen and lost a child in the gas chambers.

She built a wonderful family and did her best to love and help everyone around her all her life.

She got to see my firstborn daughter and passed away at the age of 84 with all of us around her.

Her great granddaughter, who became 18 this last July decided to volunteer and do good for others in Kibutz Ein Hashlosha.

Last Saturday morning, at 6:30, she went into the saferoom in the Kibutz with 8 other friends, beautiful girls and boys volunteering with her.

A short while later terrorist beasts came into her kibutz and into other kibbutzim in the area and started slaughtering children, men and women of all ages - whole families in their homes.

My daughter witnessed homes burnt with families inside them, she heard them shooting grandmothers that were running to help their grandchildren.

She heard the terrorists laughing behind the door that she and her friends were holding with all their might while keeping silent for 14 hours.

She's going to be fine – she has my grandmother's blood running in her veins.

No, this is not fake. It's happening right now in Israel.

We need your help to get back on our feet and fight it.

Now.
