Building Hope: OTM Interview with Charitable Organization Tenufa Bakehila

OTM donates its moving services to worthy causes, and the most recent group was gracious enough to continue sharing their vision with us.

Helping a Jerusalem family with 4 kids was the outcome when Building Hope was heartbroken to discover the 7-year-old had no bed and had been sleeping in a broken crib. Their social worker found an anonymous donation of a bed, and OTM offered to move the bed to the family.
 
The Tenufa Bakehila team also treated and fixed the peeling and moldy walls and repaired dysfunctional light figures and dangerous electrical sockets and switches. They were so glad to leave the family with a fresh, clean, and healthy home. Kol HaKavod!

​We want to thank Sarah Heiman, Social Media Manager for Tenufa Bakehila, for taking the time to answer our questions and letting us share in the world of charity, at its best.


What problem is Tenufa solving for citizens?


Tenufa Bakehila: Building Hope is an Israeli non-profit organization that helps change the lives of Israelis living in poverty in 8 cities across Israel. It began because of the dire need for basic home repairs among thousands of impoverished families living in dilapidated and decaying houses. We help populations like the elderly, Holocaust survivors, physically or mentally disabled, single-parent families, new immigrants, terror victims and their families, and poverty-stricken soldiers. So we make these very necessary and urgent home repairs, and also bring in a social worker to see how we can help improve the family’s situation.

Exploring the Jewish Communities of Bahrain and Tahiti

PictureA Jewish cemetery in Manama, Bahrain’s capital. King Hamad bin Isa al-Khalifa has taken unprecedented steps for an Arab leader to demonstrate support for the nation’s Jewish population.
When the average person thinks “Jewish” a few places pop up. Israel, Miami Beach, Los Angeles and of course, New York City. In the words of the late comic Lenny Bruce: “If you’re from New York and you’re Catholic, you’re still Jewish. If you’re from Butte Montana and you’re Jewish, you’re still goyish.”

Growing up in New York, I did believe that most of the world—my world—was Jewish.
​

In fact, in many ways it was. With over two million Jews in New York, second only to Israel in Jewish population, my friends, neighbors, and of course the deli man, was Jewish. Little did I know then, that We Jews comprise a tiny percentage of the world’s population (13.9 million or a little over 0.2%).
