Standing Together is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting Israeli soldiers on active duty. Being totally funded by donations from Jews throughout the world, Standing Together acts as a bridge between Israel and other Jewish communities, creating a feeling of unity and support.Standing Together ’s activities over the last three years have brought much happiness to thousands of Israeli soldiers, who never imagined that a Jew overseas was concerned for their welfare. Now is the time for you to join us and become a part of the Standing Together family, so that we can truly Stand Together.
Standing Together's latest project is a campaign urging people in Israel to buy challah from Sderot bakeries, which are in danger of going out of business. For 25 NIS you can order 2 challot, and 1/2 kilo of either rugelach or potato borekas. (Kashrut: Mehadrin)
They hope to have an online order form up in the next few days. Meanwhile, you can email them at info@stogether.org for more information. I believe that orders received by Thursday afternoon will be available for pickup Friday at various locations throughout Israel. This post will be updated as and when I get more details.
