Request on behalf of a single-parent family

Shalom Everyone,

I have a special request on behalf of a single-parent family we assist.  Two children live with their father who is a disabled veteran of the IDF special forces.  Since he is 100% disabled, he cannot work.  His monthly disability payments are only enough to cover rent.  He cannot afford to buy groceries for his children.

This is one of many single-father households that fall between the cracks of Israeli welfare.  Single mothers in the exact same situation receive monthly alimony, food stipends, clothing allowances and discounts in addition to their disability payments.  In 2011 the Love for Israel Relief Fund has been trying to help disabled single fathers like this man secure the same resources as disabled single mothers for their children.  To date we have not been successful.

The Love for Israel Relief Fund believes all children have a right to eat healthy meals every day – regardless of their single-parent’s gender.  Therefore, I am sending a special appeal on behalf of this needy family.  I would like to secure $250 per month in grocery vouchers for them.  These vouchers can only be used at select grocery stores to buy household goods – ensuring the donated funds get used as intended.

If you wish to contribute either a monthly or one-time gift towards this special appeal, please reply for details.  I am happy to facilitate getting grocery store vouchers to this needy family.  On behalf of the Israeli children you help – Todah!

-R. David Weisskopf, Chairman

NON Profit Organization for Medical Marijuana in Israel

A request to my internet family,

I am looking for people around the world with experience and talent to help with the various issues connected to the web presence for the NON Profit Organization for Medical Marijuana in Israel. The charity is to help the sick and needy and not for personal gain, be assured it is for a good cause.
We need artists, designers, web geeks an others to help get the new charity's web presence up and running. If you are an artist, free thinker or any of the above we can use your help with graphics, code and other issues associated with the over all internet presence that I may not be aware of or have overlooked. If you want to help, mail my Facebook account with your personal talents and what you think you can do to help the cause.

Where you live and what language you speak or what god you pray to has nothing to do with the cause or issue of medical marijuana for the sick.

This is your chance to make a difference in some ones life, take a stand for what is correct!

All suggestions and all forms of help are welcome,

mazanga
