On Wednesday, B’nai B’rith International launched its Israel Emergency Fund in response to the rocket attacks made by Hamas during the past few weeks and the justified Israel Defense Forces’ counterattack. 

The goal is to raise funds to assist Israeli residents who are dealing with a barrage of rockets from Hamas. Funds could also be used to help with the personal needs of Israel Defense Forces soldiers. The B’nai B’rith World Center in Jerusalem will help distribute the funds collected by determining unmet needs.

Shalom TV News covered the fund’s reopening on Thursday.
