How does it work? Simple:
When you shop with your credit card, the sum will round up to the nearest Shekel and the margin will be donated to Life’s Door.
For example:
If your puchase sum is 9.80 NIS, you’ll pay 10 NIS, you donate 20 Agorot (0.2 NIS)
It comes to an averege of 5 NIS per month!
I read of a man who stood to speak
At the funeral of a friend
He referred to the dates on the tombstone
From the beginning…to the end
He noted that first came the date of birth
And spoke the following date with tears,
But he said what mattered most of all
Was the dash between those years
For that dash represents all the time
That they spent alive on earth.
And now only those who loved them
Know what that little line is worth
For it matters not, how much we own,
The cars…the house…the cash.
What matters is how we live and love
And how we spend our dash.
So, think about this long and hard.
Are there things you’d like to change?
For you never know how much time is left
That can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down enough
To consider what’s true and real
And always try to understand
The way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger
And show appreciation more
And love the people in our lives
Like we’ve never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect
And more often wear a smile,
Remembering this special dash
Might only last a little while
So, when your eulogy is being read
With your life’s actions to rehash…
Would you be proud of the things they say
About how you spent YOUR dash?

Especially now, hundreds of elderly people are feeling extremely lonely.
This is the time when we can find hope, love and strength within ourselves to help others.
If each one of us will spend 5 minutes a day talking with one older adult, their days will look different and despair will change into hope.
If you want to volunteer, we invite you to contact us – We will connect you with those who need hope and a listening ear and hope, so we can help them through these hard times.

Health care decisions are often complex and frightening. But these decisions will likely effect how you will live your life till the very last day. Others may need to make these decisions on your behalf. Have you discussed your wishes about health care decisions with the people closest to you? If not, you may be forfeiting the opportunity to choose the care you will be given.
