I recently volunteered to help mothers from Efrat, the organization that works to educate women about abortions. They give out tons of formula every year and are now working to change that. If anyone else, especially in the center of Israel, would be willing also to help mothers, please please contact me. Also, I am looking for someone who can get a mom a Medela pumping kit - you know, the part that connects to the pump and can be used as a hand pump.<br /><br />If you can help in any way please call me at 077-454-6899. Efrat's moms are among the poorest in Israel and need our help because their children are in the highest risk group for illness. Breastfeeding can change their entire quality of life for these infants who from the beginning almost didn't make it into the world!<br /><br />Nofia VeredNofia Vered Shem-Tovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16182444908856293741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2782551808324372235.post-29999553286529080202010-11-12T17:17:11.702+02:002010-11-12T17:17:11.702+02:00Daf Yomi in Pittsburgh is being sponsored for the ...Daf Yomi in Pittsburgh is being sponsored for the month of Kislev in memory of RivKa! <br /><br />May she be a Malitz Yosher and may her family know no more suffering.Survivorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00354612143161114501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2782551808324372235.post-50712692648278367932010-11-11T17:32:06.183+02:002010-11-11T17:32:06.183+02:00I have recently stumbled upon this blog and am sad...I have recently stumbled upon this blog and am saddened to hear of the loss of such an inspirational woman. <br />I have recently become a Medela Maven (another breastfeeding advocate) and would like to ask permission from RivkA's family and friends to publicize this charitable gemach service on other public forums where there may be a larger (non-Jewish/religous) audience. <br /><br />May RivkA's family be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10053082541240077924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2782551808324372235.post-14792118423163041852010-11-10T10:51:17.867+02:002010-11-10T10:51:17.867+02:00Tax Deductible Status for donations, now available...Tax Deductible Status for donations, now available.<br /><br />Please see the updated blog post towards the bottom.Jameel @ The Muqatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15890095633246557332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2782551808324372235.post-4269642287600724332010-11-09T06:02:10.097+02:002010-11-09T06:02:10.097+02:00Adina, The page is up if you'd like to donate ...Adina, The page is up if you'd like to donate via pay pal or by mailing a check.
