Ami-chai Soldiers Refreshment Station

Donors: 537

Ami-Chai Soldiers’ Refreshment Station Since October 12th 2023, the Ami-Chai Refreshment Station has provided soup, hot meals, and sandwiches, not to mention fruit, snacks, cold drinks, tea and coffee, to soldiers serving in and around Gaza. Located just a few km from the border, we set up a kitchen, showers and laundry service to provide for our troops. Our main tent (complete with air-conditioning) is open all-day, every day. Soldiers constantly thank us for the food, but more importantly, they thank us for the reminder of what they are fighting for and the love they feel at each visit. After such a long battle, it is easy to think that people at home have forgotten them, but when our soldiers receive over-flowing schnitzel sandwiches, a hot bowl of homemade soup, or fresh roast chicken served on real plates with metal cutlery, they feel the enormous hug sent from homes around Israel. While almost every other station set up after Oct 7th has closed, we have expanded (including sending deliveries up North to soldiers in Lebanon) and maintain our promise that as long as the soldiers are in Gaza, we will be here, ready and waiting to provide for them. The station was founded and is run by Uriah Attias. The refreshment station is called “Ami-chai” after his brother, Amichai Attias z”l, who always saw the good in people and worked tirelessly to help others. Volunteers include family and friends representing all Am Yisrael - religious and secular, Ashkenazi and Sephardi, left and right wing, from all over the country. Our operating costs are low due to high volumes of donated food and produce, but we still need donations to continue our activity. We would appreciate any assistance you can provide. עם ישראל חי! יחד ננצח!!
