October 23, 2023 Dear Alumni and Friends,   We continue to daven for those who are injured, held captive and for the safe return of our chayalim.   We're very proud of alumni in Israel who are working tirelessly to support our chayalim and the thousands of people affected from communities across Israel. Please see below for a listing of fundraising initiatives promoted by our alumni. If you are an alumnus and are promoting an initiative that is not listed here, please contact Rabbi Josh Zisook at jzisook@htc.edu, so we can include it in a future email. Please note that HTC is sharing this information at our alumni's requests but is not collecting any funds directly or taking financial responsibility for these initiatives.   Many thanks,   Rabbi Shmuel L. Schuman CEO, HTC ISRAEL RELIEF FUND - SHALOM MENORA & FAMILY Promoted by Shalom Menora (FYHS '81)  In honor of his sons currently serving in the IDF (within Golani and the other in an undisclosed unit) and in memory of his father Moshe Menora A"H (a former HTC board member and veteran of the IDF).  Shalom Menora, alongside his son Judah, are raising funds for IDF units and communities across Israel. To date, they have raised over $300,000 and need your help to do more. The website wants to allow you to join them, not only in the financial support, but in being part of the story and journey through their eyes. All donations are tax deductible. Israel Relief Fund DAILY GIVING ISRAEL RELIEF FUND Promoted by Dr. Jonathan Donath (FYHS '98)  The Israel Emergency Fund for emergency medical aid, equipment for IDF soldiers, and the distribution of food and other essentials to those in need. It is being collected for distribution outside of Daily Giving's regular daily distribution. Daily Giving Israel Relief Fund HISPIN SECURITY FUND Promoted by Sam Sadoff (FYHS '09) The northern city of Hispin, where I live, is located seven minutes from the Syrian border and is fundraising for much-needed security equipment for the local alert platoon.  Seeking funds to upgrade security infrastructure and procure safety equipment.  Hispin Security Fund JUST ONE CHESED - AID FOR ISRAEL Promoted by Rabbi Josh Kanter (FYHS '01)  Started by Jerry Latinik (FYHS Parent and former Chicagoan)  Due to the unprecedented and violent attack by our enemies, thousands of Israeli soldiers and reserves are being called up, with thousands more injured and being displaced. Just One Chesed is collecting funds to help those in need due to this catastrophe in addition to distributing much needed supplies to our brave soldiers. Please consider donating and helping our brothers and sisters being affected by this tragedy. Just One Chesed - Aid for Israel PROTECT THE YISHUVIM IN THE GOLAN HEIGHTS Promoted by Michael May (FYHS '98) Our Yishuvim in the Golan Heights are at risk of an attack and need our help. They are surrounded by Lebanon, Syria and terrorist hubs all around, and are urgently fundraising to protect their residents. The civil defense squads (who saved 1000s of lives last week in the South) need security equipment, lifesaving first aid supplies, and assistance in equipping bomb shelters as well as making essential repairs. *NEW CAMPAIGN* Support Yishuvim in Golan Heights BID FOR HOPE Promoted by Daniel Kutoff (FYHS '69)  75th Anniversary Commemorative Opal Israel Pendant to Support Victims of Recent Terror Attacks in Israel - Join us in supporting United Hatzalah, a community-based volunteer emergency medical services (EMS) organization dedicated to delivering lightning-fast responses to medical crises across Israel and the world. Bid for Hope SUPPORTING OUR RESERVISTS Promoted by Ely Katz (FYHS '87) Our sons were recently called up together with the 300,000 reservists. We are collecting and overseeing funds for distribution of tactical gear for reservists as quality gear is limited. We are procuring the specific approved gear in conjunction with approved suppliers. Gear includes bulletproof vests, boots, tactical bags, helmets, pocket knives, army tzitzit, guitars and additional needs as they become necessary.  Donation through Bnei Akiva.  Type in "Chayalim" in the other donation box.  Supporting Our Reservists FOOD AND BASICS FOR IDF RESERVE UNIT IN THE WEST BANK  Promoted by Aaron Frolich (FYHS '02) Fundraiser started by my brother in-law, Jeff Fantl (past Yeshivas Hakayitz counselor) to help his reserve unit of 80 IDF soldiers deep in the West Bank to keep them well fed with nutritious food as they're called for service and away from their families.
