Esther's story

Her past bears painful memories. Her present shouldn't have to.

Like Esther, thousands of Holocaust survivors live below the poverty line and struggle to find the means to get through the day. The holidays are particularly difficuly for these survivors, who suffer from scarcity and isolation. 

 
Esther has been receiving help from "Aid for Life" for a few years and has been incredible relationships with the volunteers who come visit her, bring her food packages, take her on walks and drive her to doctor's appointment. 

More than ever, Holocaust survivors need our help. Help us give them a greater start to the year.
