Iris's Light

By Galila for a better future

Honoring the memory of Iris Amir

Donors: 13

A deep ache and longing accompany every first day of the school year since Iris passed — yet alongside the pain, a warm light continues to shine. Iris was the light of our family: a beloved daughter, sister, wife, and devoted mother to Yogev, Yuval, and Itai. Her memory lives in the small moments — like when a child opens a pencil case for the first time. When a student at Ramon School takes out their first pencil, we feel Iris beside us. In 2020, longing for her and wanting to turn her spirit of giving into action, we created “A Kit for Every Child” in her memory. We saw how school expenses burden many families in the community where her children grew up. Each year, our family gathers to pack full school kits — a backpack, pencil case, notebooks, and all the essentials for a confident start to the year. On that day, Iris feels closest to us. Together with Office Stock and the Ramon School staff, we ensure a respectful and discreet distribution. This year, our goal is to support 100 families. Your donation provides complete, high‑quality kits that give each child dignity, confidence, and a fair start. Every contribution helps a child feel seen, valued, and ready for the year ahead. Iris’s light shines in every child who realizes they have not been forgotten. Join us in honoring her endless generosity — and help us bring hope and dignity to 100 families. Help us continue giving.
