The One Day…writes Sarah Bendetsky
How often do we find ourselves complaining about trivial matters in our lives?
We take the basic things for granted — having food on our plates and a roof over our heads, or enjoying a peaceful Shabbat dinner with our family.
Then one day, something unexpected can happen leading any one of us into times of hardship and stress, health complications or financial challenges… and turning our once happy lives upside down.
Jewish Care’s emotional 2015 Annual Appeal video ‘Then One Day’ describes a once perfect life that takes a turn for the worse. What happened to an 8-year -old Ava and her mother is told through a storybook Ava has created.
Whether assistance is needed for aged care, disability, housing, employment, counselling, financial support and many other vital services – Jewish Care is here for our community. Every day.
Our organisation is the first point of contact for Jewish people in need, assisting thousands of individuals every year. Our 2015 Annual Appeal needs to raise
$3.5 million to help fund Jewish Care services that receive little or no government funding, so we can give people in need the tools to create a better life for themselves.
