Welcome to the Website of Yad L’Ami (hand to my people)
Despite its small size, Yad L’Ami has become a thriving foundation that focuses on offering effective help along with personal attention.
Yad L’Ami offers assistance to the neediest groups of people in Israel. In short, the aim of Yad L’Ami is to be your helping and comforting hand and heart.
“When I have brought them back from the nations and have gathered them from the countries of their enemies, I will be proved holy through them in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God, for though I sent them into exile among the nations, I will gather them to their own land, not leaving any behind.”
Wave of Aliyah
Especially now with global terrorism on the increase, it is not easy for a person to make the decision to leave his home and settle somewhere new, but for the Jewish people there is the knowledge that a new home awaits them in the State of Israel.
A majority of the new olim (immigrants) state that the drastic rise in anti-Semitism in their home countries was the underlying reason for their decision to immigrate to Israel (aliyah). Many of the olim left behind not only their homes but also successful businesses that they had to sell prior to making aliyah.
Think for a moment about what is involved in immigrating to a new country: It is a big step to leave your home and culture; the emotional impact is great. Starting a new life in Israel is not easy and many become discouraged. They struggle with learning the Hebrew language, lack of work and income, loneliness, etc.
The State of Israel is home to all Jewish people worldwide. Israel is a home in which every Jewish person can truly lead a Jewish life in freedom, peace, and security and it is the only country where they are welcomed with open arms.
Help us prepare the way for God’s people to come home! God has His ways to accomplish this.
