The story · English

As the High Holy Days approach, the organization Yad L'Achim is drawing attention to hundreds of Israeli children being raised in Arab villages, disconnected from their Jewish heritage. The organization is initiating a campaign to raise funds for the redemption of these children, a concept rooted in Jewish tradition. Donors contributing to this cause will have their names forwarded for prayer at three holy sites during the upcoming High Holy Days, which include Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

Yad L'Achim aims to rescue these children from environments where they are reportedly being raised without Jewish education or connection to their roots. The organization emphasizes the urgency of the situation as the Jewish New Year begins, framing the effort as a critical mission to bring these children back to their Jewish identity.
