Financial Assistance for Yonatan and Shira

Yonatan is a 38-year-old father of three. He lives with his wife, Shira, and their children in central Israel. Before the war, he held a steady job and supported his family with dignity. But since October, everything has changed.

Yonatan has served round after round of reserve duty, with only short breaks in between. After being called up the first time, he lost his job. Since then, he’s been trying to find new work, but each time he gets close, the same issue comes up: employers don’t want to hire someone they know will likely be called up again soon.

With no stable income, the family’s financial situation has become critical. The payments Yonatan receives during his reserve service are far lower than his usual salary. Meanwhile, household expenses continue to climb, especially after months of war.

Shira has done everything she can to keep the family afloat, but they’re slipping further into debt. The pressure is mounting, and the uncertainty makes it hard to plan even a few weeks ahead.

This is not just a financial crisis, it’s a cry for help from a family pushed to the edge. They are asking for any support possible, food, rent, childcare assistance, anything to help them survive until Yonatan can return and rebuild what’s been lost.
