Escaping the violence of the Ukraine war, Luba and her husband immigrated to northern Israel in December 2021. They made Aliyah and became citizens, settling in Nof HaGalil.
Yet, before their move, this elderly couple had been battling serious health issues. Luba suffered from a brain tumor and needed major surgery, and her husband was ill with stomach cancer, and required immediate medical care. They finally received treatment in Israel.
But many of their medical costs were not covered by their insurance, and they were living in a new country on a fixed income. Plus, when the attacks from Hezbollah became more intense, it triggered the war trauma they had just fled. Where could they turn for help?
Thankfully, friends like you were there for this frightened, older couple. Through CBN Israel, caring donors provided desperately needed finances to help pay their out-of-pocket medical expenses. They also delivered groceries and essentials to ease their financial distress.
And during the current war with Hezbollah, they offered them trauma therapy—while our staff makes regular home visits to let them know they aren’t alone. Luba exclaimed, “Thank you so much for your generous support! It is important to help each other in these difficult times.”
Your gifts to CBN Israel can reach so many who are facing major hardships. You can be there with food, housing, relief aid—and compassion. And your support can extend help and hope to single moms, refugees, immigrant families, Holocaust survivors, and war victims.
