Time is running out, Passover is almost here!
DIMONA WAS HIT
BUT REMEMBRANCE
IS NOT ENOUGH
Thousands of Holocaust Survivors are still here, still vulnerable. We need urgent help to continue delivering meals, essentials, and care to thousands of elderly survivors who are struggling with hunger, isolation, and life below the poverty line.
The devastating statistics
of Israeli Holocaust Survivors
18%
lack access to a protected space from rockets
25%
live below the
poverty line
50%
cannot afford
basic necessities
36%
need urgent assistance to purchase food
Every single day, Meir Panim checks in on 2,200 Holocaust survivors across Israel.
We do not just drop off food and leave.
We see when a home is unsafe, when the bills have gone unpaid, when a refrigerator is broken, when a survivor cannot access their safe room, and when isolation is becoming unbearable.
they are the only human connection they have.
Don’t just remember this Yom Hashoah, show you care by taking action!
It’s a miracle no one died
Volunteers are going door-to-door to reach families who cannot leave
The survival of Israel has always carried a sense of the miraculous.

While the skies above Israel show moments of wonder…
families below are still struggling.
Nearly 3 million Israelis live in poverty.
For them, this war has pushed an already fragile life to the edge.
“The sirens wake the kids all night. School is closed. My job shut down, and I just don’t know how we will manage”
Lior, 39, father of three
“When the sirens start, my body freezes. The sound brings back memories I spent my entire life trying to forget.”
Sara, 91
“My husband is fighting in the north. Soldiers are getting wounded. I barely sleep because of the sirens and because I’m terrified the phone will ring.”
Maya, wife of an IDF reservist
