Israel’s Family Day

Today, families in Israel are celebrating FAMILY DAY! A day when everyone in the family is included, celebrated, and valued for their role in the family! Click below to watch as our Sarah shares about the importance of Family Day!

CFOIC Heartland’s flagship social services program is the Samaria Family Assistance Program. Working in close cooperation with the devoted social workers and staff of the Samaria Regional Council, the program provides food vouchers for needy families, particularly at holiday times when the needs are greatest. With your help we also provide regular support for hot lunch programs for needy children. A quick call to CFOIC Heartland and the family received the food and vital supplies they needed to get through the first weeks, before government funding could kick in.
