Hello,
My name is Bentzi. I’m 17 years old. One month ago, my father passed away. He left behind 11 children.
Since then has been like a dream. Or maybe I should say a nightmare. I try to be strong, but I can’t stop crying My mother is crushed under the weight of having to raise the family all by herself. Our father had tremendous debts, which now fall on her shoulders.
Without Abba’s job, we don’t have money to live. The weather is changing to summer, but there is no money for the kids to get new clothes. The fridge is empty, and there is nothing for groceries. Soon, the lights will be shut off, unless we find some help.
During this time, we’ve been leaning on Achisamach.
Volunteers from Achisamach brought us meals for Shabbat, when we had nothing to buy food with. They also give grocery vouchers.
Without help from Achisamach, we won’t be able to buy groceries. There are 40 other families with similar stories to ours who also desperately need help.
Please, if you are blessed enough to have what you need, donate to help. We have nothing.
Thank you
Bentzi Schaeffer*
