Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

We are reaching out on behalf of Eli Dahan, a beloved husband, father, and member of the Tenafly community, who is currently fighting for his life.

After suffering several strokes, Eli underwent quadruple bypass heart surgery. The procedure was critical to his long-term health—but during surgery, he experienced additional strokes that caused severe brain trauma. He remained in a coma for 10 days, and while he is now awake, he is currently unable to speak or move. The prognosis remains very dim.

Eli’s wife is now facing this unimaginable situation while caring for their two young children. With Eli unable to work and mounting medical bills on the horizon, this young family urgently needs our help.

All donations will go directly to support Eli’s wife and children—covering living expenses, childcare, ongoing medical care, and any adjustments they will need to make during this heartbreaking transition.

Please give what you can, and if you’re unable to donate, sharing this page will mean the world.

Thank you for your love, support, and prayers.
