Why we opened this campaign
"... I was happily married to Yosef. We were best friends and always supported each other..."
It was four years ago when they and their 3 children moved to Israel from Georgia to pursue their happy life. However, on their 10th wedding anniversary, everything changed. Yosef didn't return home from work, and Avigal found out about his death in a terrible car accident.
It was an extremely tragic loss for her. She had difficulty coping with the grief and loneliness of not having anyone left except her children.
"...I was completely heartbroken after losing my husband and was depressed for a year. Once I was sitting in the kitchen crying. My kids came in, and I realized that in remembrance of my husband, I owed it to him to move on. By all means, I must keep going forward in life and provide the kids with the level that we wanted to give them. With Yosef..."
Currently, Avigal is struggling to cope with her grief and continue with her life. She is determined to confirm all of her diplomas and pursue a career in Israel. Her major is child psychology.
"...I get up every day at 5 a.m. to get my children ready for school, and then I go to classes. At night, I work as a dishwasher in a restaurant. I know it's the right thing to do. And it's temporary...!"
"...I respect the memory of my husband and know that he is proud of me! And probably smiles at me from above..."
The Foundation set out to support her efforts on this challenging and tough path. After all, it is insanely hard to handle her schooling, childcare, rental apartment expenses, and family maintenance on her own.
This is the only option to ensure a sustainable future for her family!
Our confidence in Avigal and her willingness to help others is absolute. Therefore, we would like to provide financial support to assist her through this challenging time.
It is our sincere hope that you would join us in supporting Avigal.
