Story
The life of the Reich family was turned upside down after a fire broke out in the warehouse they used to operate a business for gifts and advertising products. The fire consumed everything down to the foundations, and now the Reich family is looking for help to clear the ruins and start a new path.
We are contacting you with a personal request for assistance.
Until the beginning of 2023, we were a normal family from Moshav Sde Ilan in the north of Israel, proud parents of 7 children, owners of a business for advertising products and gifts alongside work in the field of education and therapy. At noon on Thursday, December 29, 2022, our world turned upside down when a fire broke out that turned into an inferno in the farm's warehouse, which also served as our business for gifts and various advertising products. Following the big fire, the entire building collapsed.
Besides the massive damage to our business equipment, as is customary in the agricultural settlements, the roofs of many buildings are still made of asbestos, and so was ours. It turns out that in a fire, the asbestos roof "explodes like popcorn" and in such a situation all the waste on the site is infected with asbestos and it must be removed all together, to a designated site for the removal of asbestos and its burial. With tremendous effort we managed to raise the amount needed to remove the asbestos, and now all that remains is rehabilitation and rebuilding, a difficult matter estimated at over a hundred thousand dollars.
Our only solution is a direct and personal appeal to your hearts to please help us, if only so that we can begin to set out anew.
We are asking for your help in order to get out of the predicament we have fallen into. Every donation will help in the hope that we will be able to raise the amount required to restore and rebuild our business and our family.
Thank you for coming this far and reading about our case. God bless you!
