Happy Chanukah from LevLA

Our Massive Menorah

Hi, it’s Galit -

Thank you dear guests and donors for being part of the LevLA family!
What a beautiful Chanukah!!! 

Let me show you what is happening in LevLA:

Our Massive Menorah

Our Guests

During this heavy war, every Jew has been affected and become connected. Jews help Jews whether in Israel or across the world in LevLA. And in this time of darkness, the Chanukah menorah  gives us hope for a miraculous salvation! 

Eldar and Shimrit

This is Eldar and Shimrit, of Kibbutz Nachal Oz. On Simchat Torah, Eldar’s mother was murdered, and they experienced the horrible massacre. Shaking with trauma, Shimrit saw that her family needed to get out to a safe place 

They just left back to Israel, and we will miss them!

Kochava and her daughter

Another of our guests now is Refael and Kochava. After Sukkot, they came in from Mexico for a few days for Refael to receive heart surgery in Cedars-Sinai Cardiac Center. Unfortunately, that surgery led to multiple others, but baruch Hashem, two months later, he is finally in rehab ❤️‍🩹.

The LevLA building is busy, but b”H we were able to arrange a suite for their delayed stay, and for their amazing, devoted children who are on a visiting rotation.
