Letter and Request from Eran Doron, Mayor

Subject: Urgent Appeal for Support - Standing Strong in the Face of Adversity

Dear Friends and Supporters,

In the wake of a recent tragic event, our Ramat HaNegev region faces a severe security and humanitarian crisis. Just over a week ago, under cover of a massive rocket barrage, Hamas terrorists breached the Gaza security fence, infiltrated our border communities, and horrifically abducted and murdered civilians at an unprecedented scale.

We, your fellow Jews and friends abroad, are reaching out for your vital support. Your contributions will help in two critical areas:

  1. Enhancing Security: To ensure our communities’ safety, we must invest in modern security technologies, training, and resources for our emergency response teams. Your contributions will fortify our defenses and readiness (see list below).
  2. Support for Evacuated Residents: Also essential is the well-being of those evacuated from homes near Gaza. Your donations will provide temporary housing, essential supplies, and the care they need (see list below).

Your support, both financial and through your thoughts and prayers, serves as a beacon of hope during these trying times. Together, we can demonstrate that acts of terror only strengthen our resolve to protect our people and land.

To donate, please follow the PayPal link or contact The Negev Foundation at 216-691-9997.

The challenge is daunting, but our commitment remains unwavering. Stand with us in this time of need, showing solidarity with the people of Israel.

With heartfelt gratitude and determination,

Eran Doron, Mayor
