Asylum seekers came to Israel fleeing atrocities in Eritrea, Sudan, and elsewhere, and went through horrors on their journey here. Now they live in Israel without basic rights.
At ASSAF, we believe that they deserve to live in dignity, with the prospect of a better future. Within the complicated reality in Israel, our challenge is to promote the rights and well-being of asylum seekers, and fight discriminating policies.
Upon the Jewish New Year we invite you to join in and support our cause.
In the coming weeks, any amount donated to ASSAF will be doubled by a generous donor. In our donation-matching campaign, your contribution to ASSAF now has a greater impact than ever.
Where is the money invested?
A donation to ASSAF means aid and support for men and women who survived the torture camps in Sinai, for people with physical and mental disabilities, and for the chronically ill; a donation to ASSAF is a helping hand to women in distress, to single-parent families and to each individual in need of assistance.
With your support, our youth club will continue to provide a social and educational framework for dozens of kids and teenagers, including homework assistance and a hot meal.
So please stand with us in our challenge and support our work on behalf of asylum seekers. Help us to continue to provide direct aid, and fight for policy change. Let us keep our eyes wide open and never stand idly by.
