How exciting to see Zechariah's vision being fulfilled in our own
generation! After 2,000 years of desolation, the streets of Jerusalem are alive
and "filled with boys and
girls playing," exactly as foreseen by our prophets. With the
miraculous renewal comes an obligation to care for those who are struggling. A
sobering report shows that 776,500 children, or 1 out of 3, are living below the
poverty line in Israel. TikvaHope ("Tikvah" is Hebrew for hope) comes to the aid
of disadvantaged children and struggling families. TikvaHope's unique and
comprehensive approach gives children the nourishment, learning and support they
need to succeed, while their parents receive training and counseling to improve
their financial stability and strengthen the family unit.
