Fleece Jacket Project for The Israeli Defense Force

Every winter Restoration participates in an amazing project called "The Fleece Jacket Project for the IDF." There are several units of the Israeli army that need fleece jackets to keep warm as the they protect the borders of Israel from its enemies. Restoration partners with a messianic organization in Jerusalem to provide fleece jackets for these amazing soldiers. The cost of one fleece jacket is $22. Last year we were able to purchase just under 300 jackets. 
During this season of Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, & Christmas we encourage you to buy one less gift and buy a fleece jacket for an Israeli soldier. There are three ways to give:
1. Restoration App: Use "IDF Fleece Jacket Project" in the dropdown menu
2. Website: shalomseattle.com/donate, Use "IDF Fleece Jacket Project" in the dropdown menu
3. Put a donation in an envelope marked "IDF" through the end of December at our Shabbat Gathering.
