PROJECTS

We support specifically selected projects for needy Jewish people as well as organizations and old people's homes in Frankfurt and Israel.

The projects of the B'nai B'rith Frankfurt Schönstädt Loge e.V.

The B'nai B'rith Frankfurt Schönstädt Lodge supports projects specifically. We supported needy Jewish people as well as organizations, old people's homes and further social projects in Frankfurt and Israel.

For example, during the time when there were many suicide bombings in Israel, we supported projects for the benefit of victims of these attacks with donations. We financed rehabilitation measures with our donations or tried to help the bereaved with monetary donations.

We support organizations in Frankfurt that take care of needy Jewish people as well as individual needy people directly.

We support a home for the elderly run by B'nai B'rith in Haifa. A large number of Holocaust survivors live in this home. We have sent donations to the old people's home for renovation costs.

We also supported a project in the context of the Gaza war, which came to our attention through Keren Hayessod. However, we donated directly to the "Eden" project in Israel. We always donate directly and thus avoid that expenses are deducted from our donations. We will continue to support this project in the future.

We support Jewish people in need in Eastern Europe by making sure that they have enough food and we donate for medical care as well as for the education of children in Jewish religion.

Our principle is "Do good and don't talk about it". That is why we do not name all the projects here and, of course, do not name private individuals whom we support with donations.

Ukraine: Medicines for our partners logo in Lviv

Dear friends, it is done. The medicine arrived in Lviv directly at the B'nai B'rith Leopolis Lodge on March 20 2022. Our local volunteers can now distribute them to the many elderly people who come to us in need. This delivery is enough for a while. I cannot thank all the donors enough.
