“Whoever saves a life, it is as if they
saved an entire world”

(Jerusalem Talmud)

More than 200 people were kidnapped by Hamas on Oct 7. Bring Our People Home is launching separate campaigns for each of them, building on whatever connections we can make to good people worldwide who can press for their release. You can help by sharing their stories and donating in support of this effort.
