Pssst...
Got a minute?
Here's a wonderful opportunity from Chabad:
It's time to show them that we care. That we are in awe of their heroism and brimming with admiration for their courage. That all of us across the world are hoping, praying, learning and doing extra good deeds for their safety.
Write your thoughts to an IDF soldier, or an Israeli living in an area where rockets are falling. We will hand-deliver your words of encouragement, and if you choose, your picture as well.
Be there with them, hand in hand, providing even more strength and courage.
They are also including your email address with your message, you might hear back from whoever receives your message. I've more than done a few myself already.
and hey... spread that link around, 'kay?

I'm not much for writing people, but I did just give some money to the American Friends of Magen David Adom at http://www.afmda.org/index.aspx (the Israeli equivalent of the American Red Cross--I got the link from Torah.org).

I just made a big donation to American Friends of Magen David Adom. It is thanks to the speed and dedication of Magen David Adom personnel who respond to every incident, that the victims of these qassam and rocket attacks are treated, stabilized and transferred to the hospital with skill and compassion. They deserve all the help they can get and I"m happy to do what I can to assist since I'm not able to volunteer. Everybody should do the same! I made mine by calling the Southeast Region office at 800-626-0046 but it can also be done on line at afmda.org. Any way you donate, it's a mitzvah.
