Who you will help
The Amcha Senior Home's mission is to promote the wellbeing, dignity, and respect of Israeli Holocaust survivors and their families, by offering ongoing psycho-social services to over 200 Holocaust survivors. However, the building is in disrepair: broken tiles, unsanitary kitchen, unsafe elevator, torn furniture, etc. Due to lack of funding, it has not had an upgrade in decades and thus is not suitable for program activities or serving its patients.
Your donation will fund
There is an urgent need for renovation of the center to make the "second home" of these survivors as pleasant as it can be, and to ensure that the final chapter of their lives will be one of comfort, care and dignity.
Location
Amcha Seniors Center is in Rehovot, about 25 km south of Tel Aviv.
