Thousands of children in northern Israel are spending their days and nights in bomb shelters. They are restless, they are bored and they are anxious.
No one better identifies with their anxiety than their peers from cities in the north.
So when Chabad in Safed moved its whole camp to Kfar Chabad, a village near Tel Aviv, the children got busy helping their friends up north.
Chasdei Lev is a humanitarian organization established in memory of Rabbi Levi Bistritsky, the late Ashkenazic Chief Rabbi of Safed and one of Chabad’s preeminent Shluchim in the city. Today the organization is sponsoring a massive gift-package campaign for Israel’s children.
The campaign, which has spurred children from Chabad camps Israel-wide to lend a hand, intends to deliver these colorful gift packets to children in every one of the bomb shelters in all of the cities up north.
With the limited space and no outdoor activity for children holed up in the bomb shelters, parents exhausting their creativity trying to occupy their little ones will be delighted by the gifts.
