Counting the Omer

APRIL 20TH 2023

Tonight we will count the 15th day of the Omer, grateful for the many blessings we enjoy and mindful of those who are suffering. 

Our work in Ukraine continues, addressing the needs of people whose lives have been changed forever. Many have lost their homes and personal belongings. Separated from friends and family, without jobs and income. We are grateful for generous donors who sustain our operations, allowing us to provide food, medical care, lodging and support of all kinds. Here are a few of the people we helped this week. Please lend your support to these lifesaving efforts.

Alina, from Vinnytsia (pictured to the left), and Mark (above) in Chernivtsi receive much needed speech therapy.

Mr. Charkasskyi, in Zhytomyr, gets new glasses.

Anna, from Cherkassy, receives urgent dental treatment.

Maxim, in Mykolayiv, is treated by a psychologist for panic attacks caused by the many bombing attacks of the city.

Zaitseva Elizaveta Borisovna, 87, lives alone in Chernihiv and suffers from memory issues. Food and support from JRNU are lifelines for her.

Together we Save Lives and Restore Hope!
