Dear Friends
We have arrived in Israel and are overjoyed to join 10 others from our community in Puerto Rico to experience the blessings of our Jewish homeland. This is the land where Abraham journeyed, where King David defended the Jewish people against Goliath, and where his father, King Solomon, built the Holy Temple. It is the land where all Jews would make pilgrimage to celebrate the three joyous festivalsâ€"Pesach, Shavuot, and Sukkot. Today, it is home to over nine million Jews, including many of our grandparents who arrived when the world had closed its doors to them, as well as those who came out of a deep passion to bask in the shelter of Hashem’s eternal gift of Eretz Yisrael.

At a time when the economy has been severely impacted and tourism is at a low, we are blessed with the opportunity to show our support and help reignite the dormant tourism industry, supporting local businesses and our fellow Jews. We will visit and share love with devastated communities, embrace our heroic soldiers who stand ready to make the ultimate sacrifice, and travel north to immerse ourselves in the deep spiritual wellsprings of our Kabbalistic heritage. We will visit the Psagot Winery, where award-winning Israeli wine is produced, co-owned by the wonderful Falic family, who have spent so many memorable Shabbatot with us in Puerto Rico. In Shiloh, we will plant olive trees as a testament to our eternal endurance. We will pray at Mount Herzl, the national cemetery where our heroes rest, and throughout our journey, we will not only experience the land but, through your generosity, bring relief to victims, support our brave defenders, and share our collective love with them.

As part of this mission, we are aiming to raise $15,000 to directly support those in needâ€"hostages who have been freed, injured soldiers, and victims of recent attacks. Every dollar we raise will be distributed personally to bring comfort, strength, and tangible help to those who have sacrificed so much.
You can join us in this vital initiative and be a part of this profound act of unity and kindness by contributing
Let's stand together and show our unwavering support for Israel's heroes and their families.
