The women of the Jewish Agency's Fund for Victims of Terror
11,000 families supported since October 7: ‘We realized the scope of terror victims extends beyond the immediate circle and responded’
Since the Second Intifada, the Jewish Agency's Fund for Victims of Terror has gained extensive experience in assisting those affected, but the events of October 7 presented unprecedented challenges. 'The scale was enormous, and our first challenge was reaching everyone,' says Ayelet Nahmias-Verbin, the fund's chair. 'When I went to seek help from community members in Australia, I couldn’t stop crying.' The fund quickly recognized that addressing the needs of direct victims was not enough; support had to extend to their families as well. One such family is that of Lishay Miran Lavi and her daughters, 3-year-old Roni and 1-year-old Alma, whose father Omri was abducted to Gaza. For over 440 days, they have been waiting for his return. 'Alongside the fund's assistance, Ayelet has been by my side, holding my hand when the pain is too much,' says Lishay. 'We can’t heal until Omri comes back.' If you also have a prayer for a little light in the coming year, join us in lighting a candle on the Jewish Agency's digital menorah on Ynet, spreading the light of the Jewish community in Israel and around the world.
