Operation Lifeshield Provides Shelters for Teen Girls Residential School in Israel

It's a fact - Israel has her share of social problems, just like other countries. Violence, neglect and abuse at home; exist in many corners of Israeli society. The Eden Residential School for at-risk teen girls (ages 12-18) provides a safe space for those who cannot or choose not to live at home. However, this "safe" space, situated inside beautiful Kibbutz Karmiya, is located only 2 miles (3 km) from the northern Gaza border. And as recently as this past Thursday night, rockets struck this area, giving the residents only a few seconds warning to seek shelter.

Operation Lifeshield seeks to help the most vulnerable populations in Israel who live in targeted areas.

Operation Lifeshield delivered two bomb shelters a few days ago, donated by United With Israel. The girls were excited and appreciative to have more shelters to protect them. I sincerely hope that these shelters will help the girls concentrate on healing from their emotional wounds, and also demonstrate that in a world of hurt, there are people from distant places who love them.
