Some 2,000 boxes of light and hope were distributed during this Hanukkah holiday to displaced Israeli refugee children and their families who were forced out of their homes near the Gaza border by savage invading Hamas terrorists on October 7.
The “Lights in a Box” project, organized by Mercaz Khosen and supported in part by the Ari Fuld Project, contains a selection of items aimed at bringing joy to the traumatized children and their families.
Among the contents in the box are a kit for creating a Hanukkah menorah and a box of candles, along with other holiday-related items.
Two thousand families received the Hanukkah therapy packages, which are intended to build family and community resilience for the Israeli refugees.
Mercaz Khosen provides trauma therapy, social and psychological support. The organization also provided the volunteers to pack the boxes in Ma’ale Adumim.
The Ari Fuld Project provided the initiative with the platform and support needed to bring in the donations that made it all possible.
