Why we opened this campaign
Irina and her family are immigrants from Russia who moved to Israel 10 years ago and now live in Rishon LeZion. Back then, the 27-year-old woman arrived in Israel with her husband and young daughter, full of hope.
Today, the 37-year-old mother of two daughters works sorting goods in a supermarket, is in the midst of a divorce, and is struggling to make ends meet. Things have become so challenging that she has had to seek help.
Irina's relationship with her husband has been deteriorating for a long time. Even now, with the divorce imminent, they are forced to live under the same roof. The atmosphere in this home is unimaginable.
Her 15-year-old elder daughter, Maria, has had to grow up much sooner than expected. Seeing her mother's hardships, she tries to help in every way she can, taking on a very adult level of responsibility—and there is plenty of responsibility to go around!
Irina's younger daughter, 5-year-old Maya, urgently needs treatment. She has been diagnosed with developmental and speech delays, attention deficit, and communication problems. Maya does not speak, and her condition requires constant attention from specialists, therapy, and medication.
Irina is doing everything possible to improve her daughter's condition. She pays for private sessions with a speech therapist and psychologist, an osteopath, and a masseuse. She ensures Maya receives all the necessary vitamins and medications, which often have to be ordered from abroad.
Recently, Irina learned about the Alfa Brain Center, which treats children with speech, communication, and hyperactivity issues. Therapy there could significantly improve Maya's condition, but money is needed for treatment and rehabilitation.
The course costs 10,800 shekels, and we hope to help this woman obtain the funds necessary for her daughter's treatment.
Irina isn't asking for anything beyond this, managing all other life challenges on her own. Only when the task is entirely and clearly insurmountable does she turn to those who can perform a miracle for her.
That is, to us!
