Retraite des veuves et des orphelins de Hanoucca
La retraite des veuves et des orphelins de Hanoukka permet aux veuves et à leurs enfants de faire une pause dans leurs difficultés quotidiennes. Pendant trois jours, ils profitent des repas, des activités et du temps passé ensemble sans souci. Les mères se connectent avec d'autres personnes qui comprennent leur douleur, tandis que leurs enfants rient et jouent avec des amis qui partagent des expériences similaires.

Creating family not just visits
What began as a simple effort to ease loneliness among Israel’s seniors has grown into something deeply personal.
Through heartfelt home visits, thousands of college students have formed enduring bonds with elderly participants that often continue long after graduation. Many of these seniors have become part of the students’ lives, like cherished grandparents watching the next generation grow.
This Chanukah will see 3,000 seniors and college volunteers matched, through a partnership between Colel Chabad’s Get Chesed program, WeMe, and Lev Echad.
Volunteers will distribute meaningful Chanukah gifts, creating a warm, personal visit, often the only personal interaction the senior will receive during the holiday.
