Widows and Orphans

Bringing Joy, Dignity, and Hope to Widows, Orphans, and Families in Israel.

Simcha Connection, in partnership with Chyucho Shel Yeled, is dedicated to bringing joy, support, and dignity to widows, orphans, and distressed families in Israel by funding meaningful life events and spiritual needs.

Through our programs, we enable orphans to celebrate their Bar and Bat Mitzvahs with pride and joy, ensure weddings for orphans are beautiful and memorable, and provide retreats that offer widows and their children solace and connection. Additionally, we honor the memory of departed loved ones by arranging for Kaddish to be recited, preserving an essential spiritual tradition.

These programs are designed to uplift and restore hope, ensuring that no one feels alone during life’s most significant milestones.

Volunteers

Our modest number of volunteers do outstanding work yet we need more help and we ask that you assist us in reaching more people in need.

What we’ve accomplished with your help

Simcha Connection has provided hundreds of Bar and Bat Mitzvah celebrations for orphaned children. We provide gifts, catering and joyous parties with music. Simcha Connection educates these orphans in Torah in preparation of these auspicious life events. We follow our children as they continue to grow and develop, giving them access to tutors and resources such as counselors. Additionally, Simcha Connection sponsors wedding celebrations for orphans, bringing them joy, love and festivity during their marriage ceremonies. We have also created apprenticeship programs for orphans, providing them the skills needed to create careers and earn a living. Simcha Connection does so much more and we remain in contact with these families. They are always so grateful and feel comforted by our presence in their lives. We encourage you to navigate more of our site to learn more about our programs and share generously on our donations page.

What is still left to do?

Simcha Connection plans on implementing a more intense home tutoring program which costs approximately $10,000 per month to reach 100 children. We also wish to send the children to day camp during the summers and with your donations we can do this. We also intend to ramp up our apprenticeship program for the post Bar and Bat Mitzvah children so that they can acquire the necessary skills to create future careers.
