My name is Rahm Haggai and I grew up in Kibbutz Nir Oz, 1 mile from Gaza. I now live in Ridgway, CO with my partner and two kids.

***UPDATE: I just got news that my parents bodies were not actually found. Therefore, we do not know their condition and are still considered missing persons.

My parents, Judih Weinstein and Gadi Haggai, were murdered in the terrorist attacks last Saturday 10/7 along with 30-50 others and 70-80 kidnapped including women, children and elders from my community.

My home was completely destroyed, burnt to the ground and the people of the community were left with nothing. They are homeless and have lost all their possessions.

We want to raise funds for them to be used for rebuilding their lives (whatever that may be) after this tragedy. The money will go directly to the kibbutz bank account.

Below are first hand accounts of that day:
