On behalf of the soldiers of the IDF (Israel Defense Forces), we wish to thank the many, many people the world over who have sent Pizza, Burgers, Soup, Ice cream and a variety of other festive treats. Our project started in 2002 during Israel's Operation Defensive Shield, to rid our area of terrorists following the bombing of the Park Hotel in Netanya and the murder of thirty people, including many Holocaust survivors, sitting down to their Pesach Seder. This followed a number of years in which we gave you the opportunity to send Purim mishloach manot. [en français: page in French] Please tell your friends about this wonderful way to show support for our combat troops. During the last eight years we have delivered many thousands of pizza pies and other gifts to thousands of soldiers. It is hard for us to describe how happy they are to receive your "special treats" -- it goes well beyond getting a hot pizza late at night at a lonely post. It is as tremendous an experience for us to give them out as it is for the soldiers to receive them. They love to know that people everywhere support and care for them.
In honor of Rosh haShana,
the Jewish New Year, we are again giving you the opportunity to
We will be sending these packages until the end of Succot, the traditional end of the New Year festive period, so you still have time to send your messages. We have prepared a certificate you can download, print and send to your friends to tell them that you have sent Honey & Chocolates to our soldiers and their families in their honor for Rosh haShana. Just to let you know that your gifts are getting to their audience, a friend sent us the following from a local community email list: This email is from a friend of mine who works as a surgeon at Soroka. He is currently on the Gaza border patching up wounded soldiers. I thought there might be some people interested in the attached link. You can also send Pizza and Soda to families in Sderot baked in a Sderot Pizzeria. This way you can help the local Sderot economy while cheering up the locals.
