As Shabbat is almost here I suggest something to think about and something to do. There is a Conservative (Masorti) synagogue in Israel called Eshel Avraham in Beer Sheva. Like our community they have a Preschool and like our community, those little lives are incredibly precious. They have seven (7) classes, covering children from three months old to four+ years old.
Beer Sheva is in the South. Since the war started, various areas of the South have received rocket fire almost daily, and sometimes several times a day.
Unlike our community we don't need a bomb shelter. However, they do.
The school is short two shelters. We need to fundraise for them to be constructed, since it is a critical need. The total cost for the two shelters is 300,000 shekels, or approximately $85,000.
