Ofakim and Sderot | Gift Grocery Cards for Victims of the Holocaust in the GAiN Sponsorship Program

July 24th, 2024 – More victims of the Holocaust from Southern Israel, in the city of Ofakim this time, received gift grocery cards for shopping.

All these donations and blessed distribution of financial aid are made possible, thanks to the generosity of hundreds of German families donating through the GAiN Sponsorship Program and through the Helping Hand Coalition for Israel who deliver the support to the elderly nationwide.

Although rocket sirens can still be heard in the south of Israel, in the midst of the ongoing war, WWII ghetto survivors and victims of the Holocaust from the city of Sderot were so happy to receive financial support, thanks to GAiN Germany.

While most residents have returned to their homes in Sderot after half a year of being evacuated in hotels nationwide, there are still some who do not feel comfortable and safe enough to do so. Some are still staying in hotels in Eilat, Dead Sea, Tel Aviv, or temporarily living in family members’ homes, waiting for the war to be over.

Everyone is still hoping that security will return to the south soon.
