This upcoming Sukkot, we approach a painful milestone that marks exactly two since October 7, 2023, the day our world was turned upside down. From the very first day of the crisis, we mobilized to stand with the people of Israel: opening channels for emergency aid, supporting devastated communities, and helping them begin to rebuild.
For generations, KKL-JNF has strengthened Israel’s north and south, in times of peace and in times of crisis. Thanks to your partnership, we have brought hope and resilience to Israel’s communities when they needed it most.
As we mark this moment, we also look ahead, to build a future where Israel’s north and south not only survive, but thrive and lead in shaping a stronger Israel for us all.
Two years have passed since the dark day of October 7.
We are still hurting. The pain remains.
Yet even in the shadow of loss, we choose to move forward.
Together with our partners around the world, KKL-JNF is helping communities rebuild homes, restore hope, and create spaces of healing and resilience.
Because from tragedy, we will rise. From pain, we will grow.
And with your partnership, Israel will keep rebuilding, stronger, greener, and more united than ever.
