The original organizers are members of a small congregation in the Seattle Area, who live in Israel and the U.S. As we are acutely aware of the situation in Israel, we decided to take action. Over time, other concerned individuals have joined our ranks.

The fund was set up to distribute cash directly to needy families. Rabbies on the scene in Israel, and who are affiliated with the Congregation, discretely investigate the financial situation of each family we help. Everything is done by volunteers. We pay no salaries and rent no office space. Overhead is held close to zero so that funds can go to the people they're intended for. Even this Web site was donated.
