In June, the world witnessed Iran’s missile strikes on Israel that shook cities and towns across the nation. The city of Bat Yam, near Tel Aviv, was among those hit hardest.
One rocket damaged nearby neighborhoods, leaving destruction in its wake. An apartment complex with 20 families was spared from direct impact, but when residents rushed to the bomb shelter, they found it in shocking disrepair.
The air was thick with mildew, the lights were out, and the stairs were crumbling. Elderly residents could not descend safely, leaving them without real protection in the midst of crisis.
Even months later, Israel continues to face threats from Iran and its terror proxies across the region. Families know they must remain prepared.
Thanks to the compassion of friends like you, CBN Israel quickly partnered with Tenufa baKehila, or “Building Hope.” This dedicated group continues to repair and restore shelters throughout the Holy Land.
Under the leadership of director Gabi Nachmani, the team worked quickly. Gabi said, “We want every person to feel safe. By tonight, families will be able to come here, breathe fresh air, and know they are secure.”
He added, “Working with CBN is a joy. We share the same mission from the Bible—to stand with Israel and make sure Jewish families live in strength and peace.”
One grateful daughter of a resident shared, “My father could not get into the shelter before. Now with the safe steps and railing, he will finally be able to reach it without fear. Thank you for caring so much.”
Her father was moved to tears as he said, “You gave us back our safety. I bless you for helping us. May God reward you.”
Your gifts to CBN Israel continue to bring real hope. You can provide food, shelter, trauma counseling, financial help, and much more for those suffering from the impact of war and terror.
Please join us in making a difference for the needy and vulnerable in Israel!
