This Passover we had even more reason to celebrate: Woodley Elisse , the six year old Haiti earthquake survivor who was brought to Israel with the help of the Israeli national rescue team, has returned home to Hiati.
His amazing story of a little boy who survived the earthquake, survived a complex open heart surgery and fought for his life after all the complications that followed the surgery - is a true model for all of us and a wonderful Passover story - the Holiday of Freedom.
We are now preparing to bring another 5 children from Haiti to Israel for live saving cardiac treatment.
Please give generously from your heart so we can repair theirs. |
