We owe you a lot of hakaras hatov for your help on Sunday night. My daughter was offered a position on Sunday night to go the very next morning to the Ukraine to be a counselor in a kiruv camp. We noticed that her Israeli passport was expired, so we were just about to give up on the idea of her going. My husband then remembered about your wonderful organization and called up. Rabbi Freedman returned his call right away (about 12:00 AM) and told him about the possibility of getting an ishur (one-time allowance) to travel on her American passport.
The next morning I was in Misrad Hapnim when it opened and they allowed me to go in front of the line, since I didn’t need a passport or a teudat zehut. They said, “If you only need this ishur, you don’t have to wait behind all the people who came without an appointment!” They just let me in right away to the main room to get a number.
The whole process went so smoothly – and my daughter was off at 10:00 AM to the Ukraine.
We can’t even thank you enough. It was all thanks to your help that she traveled.
Tizku l’mitzvos.

Hi (NAME) How you doing? I’m helping out with a campaign for an organization here in Israel that really means a lot to me, I’ve actually been helped personally by this organization – when (INSERT PERSONAL STORY?!) which is why I agreed to help them raise funds so they continue their important work. The organization is called Chaim V’Chessed. Maybe you’ve heard of them. They help English-speakers in Israel, whether tourists or residents, to navigate all kinds of challenges and crises. They help with travel, medical, educational and bureaucratic crises. They are literally lifesavers. You can imagine how busy they have been since the war broke out, and how many crises they have been helping with. Here’s a short video to give you an idea of what they’ve been doing. If you are able to support them, it would mean so much to me!! I know there really are a lot of great causes out there, but if you can help me out with this cause, I’d really appreciate. Here’s the link to my page. Thank you, thank you!!!
