Be the light
That guides families through darkness
The Most Powerful Medicine Can't Be Prescribed
A child facing serious illness endures what no child should: endless treatments, painful procedures, and the theft of their childhood.
Or Lacholeh’s year-round support transforms hospital beds into safe places, delivers meals to families in crisis, and fulfills dreams that bring light to even the darkest days.
When One Child Is Sick, the Whole Family Hurts
Why Every Program Matters
When families receive devastating news, everything changes in an instant. Your compassion becomes their lifeline—providing food when they’re hungry, support when they’re overwhelmed, and hope when darkness feels endless.
We provide holistic care for every part of a family’s journey—from meals and tutoring to healing escapes and emotional therapy.

Lives in the Balance: Efrat's Story
Efrat is 12 years old – fighting cancer for the third time. Her parents sacrificed everything to stay by her side.
The cancer has returned this time, to her brain and spine.
Her parents left their jobs for round-the-clock care but now face impossible medical bills for the surgery that could save their daughter’s life.
