As you know so well, for the past seven years, the residents of Sderot, just a kilometre from Gaza, have been living under an almost daily barrage of Qassam rockets, causing death, destruction, injury and a constant climate of fear. Since the rocket attacks began, over 6,000 Quassams have struck Sderot and surrounding region. This past Shabbos, a rocket injured two brothers. One of them, an eight year old, lost a leg.
We cannot let the men, women and children of Sderot face this struggle alone.
On Monday February 25 at 7:30 p.m. at the Sheraton Centre, 123 Queen St. W. , UJA Federation, in cooperation with our community organizations, will Rally for Sderot. The evening will feature celebrated Harvard Professor Alan Dershowitz as our keynote speaker and a live satellite broadcast from the beleaguered city.
It would be very much appiciated if you could spare some of your time to advocate for the people of Sderot. There is more information in the upcoming events section.
