You may know someone like Tamar. Tamar is a sweet, kind 16-year-old. She is quiet and a little bit shy.

She also has a rare disease that restricts the use of her legs. She uses a wheelchair and needs assistance to do everyday tasks like getting in and out of bed and tying her shoes.

Tamar is as resilient as children come. But resiliency alone won't give her the opportunity to meet other teenagers with physical disabilities. Resiliency alone won't give her the confidence to see how much potential she has locked inside. Or help her experience the childhood she so richly deserves.

That's where you come in.

Your donation to Simcha LaYeled provides children with disabilities like Tamar the opportunity to grow. You create an environment for them that caters to their needs and enables them to spread their wings.

Now, during a global pandemic, there is no better time to invest in these children. Now, when social distancing makes their lives even more challenging... Now, as they experience more pronounced social isolation than ever before... your generosity answers the call.

When you donate to Simcha LaYeled, you ensure that children like Tamar have everything they need to flourish. From in-person (but socially distanced) programming to virtual concerts and events, your gift brings this inspiring group together and uplifts their lives.

When you donate, you give them personal interactions. You give them social and emotional tools to grow into mature adults. You give them the resources they need to integrate into Israeli society.

Because of you, Tamar will become a leader. She will serve in the army. She will graduate with an advanced degree. She will enter the workforce and succeed... all thanks to your generosity.

But, without your support, we simply won’t have the resources to meet the growing demands of the Simcha LaYeled family.

This cause is so important that we have set an ambitious goal to raise ₪1,500,000 by DATE.

A great - and ever-improving - community for children with special needs doesn't happen on its own. It relies in critical ways on donors like you.

Please open your heart and donate today. We don't have a moment to lose.
