Extend Your Sukkah: Bring the Joy of Sukkot to Families in Need

As we step into the sukkah, we are reminded of how fragile our homes can be — and how much we rely on Hashem’s protection.
Sukkot invites us to rejoice, to give thanks, and to welcome others into our shelter.

But for many families in Israel caring for a seriously ill child, the sukkah’s lesson of temporary shelter is all too real.

The Harsh Reality Behind the Holiday

Hospital corridors have replaced their dining rooms.
Paychecks have stopped while expenses keep climbing.
Instead of preparing for the chag with joy, these families worry about paying for groceries, transportation, and life-saving medicines.

This Sukkot, you can extend the walls of your sukkah to embrace them.
