Hi, I’m Frieda Kaplan
I’m blessed with 6 kids, but I have no one to raise them with. My husband passed away from a sudden heart attack 1.5 years ago, when he was just 48, and it’s been incredibly tough since.
Recently, I had a reality check that sent me reeling. My 6 children are stuck at home this summer. No camp, no trips, no special activities. I just don’t have the money for extras when I’m struggling to pay for our dinner each night.
My kids will always be orphans, but why do they have to be victims of poverty too?
I dream of opening a business to support my family comfortably – on my own. But as a single mom, I can’t afford to give up on my income until it becomes profitable.
I’m humbled to ask for help but knowing that my kid’s future depends on me alone, I’m turning to you. I have a sound business plan that I’ve discussed with financial advisors. I’m ready to start working on it, the only thing missing is funds to support my kids and me until my business becomes profitable.
Please could you help me keep my family afloat until my business can support us?
Your donations will go towards paying for rent, food, and bills, for the next few months. Maybe even summer camp for 6 children who have suffered enough.
Please help me give my kids the gift of financial independence. My children are orphans, please don’t let them be victims of poverty too.
Yours,
Freida Kaplan
Jerusalem, Israel
