We were honored to have a visit this week from Alexander Dietze, our dear friend from Germany. At age 28, he discovered that his grandfather was a N**i and made a decision to dedicate his life to a Tikkun and bless the Jewish People.

In addition to arriving with 15 new wheelchairs and other equipment for our medical gemach, we discussed all that our children have been through in these years of rockets and war, and what we can do together to bring healing.

We look forward to all the beautiful ways we will continue to work together, with G-d's help, to strengthen our community and especially the children.

✨️How does $18 change a life?✨️

See it for yourself in this note we just received:

"Dearest Sparks Angel,
Your sweet smiles and hugs (and the food) make a big difference in my life. Thank you for all your hard work and love you do to add joy to our lives.
With much appreciation and love to you and Hashem,
Shira"

It's like we always say: the food is a bonus. Of course, it's important too--but the real magic is in the human connection. The warm greeting. The care reflected in the eyes of our delivery "angels". That someone's feelings of isolation or loneliness are washed away by the love from a community that remembers them.

You can be part of that magic too. Sign up to volunteer, or sponsor a package:

It's our third day in a row of rockets fired on Tzfat, and the only reason our children can still enjoy moments like these is because there are shelters nearby.

Today the petting zoo stayed open. The children fed animals, laughed with friends, and for a little while were able to focus on just being kids. But every outing, every activity, every gathering is planned around one question: Where is the nearest shelter?

That has become normal life in Northern Israel.

Parents check escape routes before they check opening hours. Even toddlers know the sound of sirens and start to run. Conversations are interrupted by alerts. Plans change in an instant.

The shelters throughout our community make it possible for families to continue functioning (or something like it), even during days like these. They provide protection, but they also preserve something less visible: peace of mind and resilience.

No child should have to grow up measuring the distance to a shelter before deciding whether it's safe to play. Yet this is the reality for families across Tzfat and the north.

We are grateful for the shelters that keep our community safe. At the same time, we continue to hope for the day when our children can visit a petting zoo, go to school, and play outside without giving a second thought to where they would run if a siren sounds.

For now, we keep going. We support one another. We create moments of joy where we can. And we make sure our communities have the protection they need. 💙
