SDEROT PROJECT BY ROSH HASHANAH: Please participate.
From an email I received:

The city of Sderot is suffering - in many many aspects, and I'd like to present to you a simple way for you and your community the show that you care and support their efforts and daily struggles.

'Connections Israel' was founded in 1998 as an independent, educational, non-profit organization that provides services for Jewish communities and schools around the world enabling them to help show support for Israel in a variety of ways.

If you'd like to see recommendations, organizations we work with and documentations - please e-mail us.

We are heading a project that this Rosh Hashanah each of the 10,000 families in the Sderot area will receive a large holiday gift basket with a personalized letter from a different family from communities all over the world.

Every community's name and contribution will be marked in a major event that will take place in Sderot before Rosh Hashanah and will show the support, care and solidarity from the Jews around the world.

In appreciation for your efforts we will send to your community photos of the event, a movie and a thank you letter from the Sderot municipality.

While the cost of each basket is only $36, we encourage each community to choose their level of involvement for the amount of baskets they want to send.

We are looking for volunteers who'd like to take on this project in their community/organization and individual who would like to simply donate and show they care (http://connectionsisrael.com/donate).

If you feel you cannot donate for this cause - write a card to the families and send it to us.

Get involved and involve your community and friends for this wonderful cause !!!
