Donate trees for Yehuda and Shomron
You know that our Land is very small
and some areas are very tough to cultivate and use for
agriculture and other needs. We have to make our Land
a blooming garden full of trees, flowers and animals.
Every dollar you will donate for Yehuda and Shomron
will be used for that purpose.

One Israel Fund/Yesha Heartland
Provides emergency humanitarian
support and emergency equipment, such as current
campaign to raise money for bulletproof vehicles,
bulletproof vests, generators, binoculars, day/night
vision equipment, walkie talkies and beepers to
families in the 144 communities of the Yehuda, Shomron
and Gaza regions. There are now 220,000 people living
within these communities, 105,000 of whom are
children. Unlike other Jewish communities in Israel,
these communities in YESHA do not receive humanitarian
assistance from the major American Jewish
philanthropic organizations. It is, therefore, the
goal of One Israel Fund/YESHA Heartland Campaign to
undertake ongoing fundraising activities in order to
ensure that the humanitarian needs of the Jewish
families of YESHA are met. Donations may be made
online/ West Coast (415) 626-4704. National office
