How You Can Support Israel
The Israeli conflict with the Palestinians and other bordering countries doesn't seem as if it will dissipate anytime soon. However, there are plenty of ways you can support Israel during these trying times. So how do you go about doing that? Here are a few ways you can show your support.
How You Can Help
For starters, you can always help boost their tourism industry by taking a vacation to the holy city. I can think of no better way to support Israel than by seeing everything it has to offer. Also, if you're a jew who has never visited before, you can always sign up for a free trip via birthright Israel. Despite what the news may say, Israel is still very much a safe country to visit. Another way you can help is to donate to the Jewish Agency's Fund for the Victims of Terror. All the proceeds go to terror victims and it's a great way to help people while showing how much you support Israel. You can also try donating to your local Jewish federation which donates most of its proceeds to various charity organizations. If there's a local restaurant that sells falafel, buying their food is another way to help support Israel. You can also buy items from Israel online to show your support for Israeli businesses. The Jewish Agency also provides a program which enables you to send a note to terror victims in Israel.
Conclusion
Finally, if you have friends or family living in Israel, you can always send them a letter or email them to let them know how much you're thinking about them. By doing this, it shows them that the great state of Isreal is not alone in this fight. All of these are great ways to effectively support Isreal.
