After a business venture soured, a local husband and father found himself in tremendous debt.

I trusted my partner—perhaps too much—and I took out credit card loans, optimistic about our new business,” he said. But the busiydid not pan out, and he was forced to turn to family and friends for help after the banks turned him away.

Then his second business is not going as planed — and he now owes hundreds of thousands as his wife and more than 6 children struggle to survive.

“I’m doing the best I can, but the debt is simply overwhelming, i know im not the only onein such circumstances but things are just very difficult now” he said.

Concerned community members have thrown themselves into the task of וחי אחיך עמך — helping this individual out of his difficult predicament in the long term, so that he can find stability and
financial security and make whole those to whom he is in debt.

Helping him get back on his feet will take months, perhaps years, and while that long-term plan is being put in place, his family needs help as they cannot afford the most basic necessities.

Expenses are piling up, and his family and young children are struggling to survive. Please help them until their father can get back on his feet and start providing for them again.
