Support IDF Soldiers

Hi!

I hope this message finds you well. 

On December 30th I will be traveling to Israel to join my cousin Eli and a small group of friends to help organize a series of barbecues and special events to support and feed the brave men and women fighting for the survival of the Jewish people, the Jewish state and all who live there.

Many of the soldiers are no older than college freshmen; others have left their wives and children behind in order to protect their country and their homes. This is a heavy responsibility and the grueling nature of their service can take a toll on the spirit of these men and women. By hosting the barbecues with fresh foods, music and comfortable surroundings, we are offering a small window of normalcy and escape as well as a much needed break from their menu of field rations.

Similarly, by assembling care packages with items specifically requested by the soldiers, we aim not only to provide practical necessities but also to lift their morale. Your contribution will serve as a tangible reminder that they are appreciated and supported - that they are in the daily thoughts and prayers of people around the world. 

It costs between $4000-$5000 to feed a unit of soldiers. Your donation will go a long way in covering the costs of organizing the events and purchasing the requested items for the care packages. No amount is too small, and every penny will go to directly benefit those who sacrifice so much to ensure our safety. We've set the goal high because we know that this is how much it takes to do things at scale.

Thank you for considering this request, and we sincerely hope you'll join us in supporting the Israeli soldiers who are working tirelessly to protect our shared values and freedoms. Your generosity will make a difference in their lives, reminding them that they are not alone in their service.

Please help us reach a wider audience by sharing this initiative with your friends, family, and social networks. The more people who know about our cause, the greater the impact we can make together.

Thank you for your kindness and support.

Warm regards,

Noam Szwergold with Eli Kaplan, Tal Ben-Yaacov, Shai Ben Yaacov
