Shmulik Amar, like so many others his age, dreamed of traveling to New York for k’vutza—to immerse himself in Torah and Chassidus. But then, tragedy struck. A devastating fire tore through his apartment, changing his life in an instant.
Sixty percent of his body sustained severe burns. He has been sedated and on a ventilator for over a month. While his condition has stabilized, the road to recovery remains long, grueling, and filled with challenges.
We cannot stand by and do nothing.
Shmulik is fighting for his life, and his family has put everything on hold to be by his side. But the financial burden is overwhelming—life-saving treatments, surgeries, and long-term rehabilitation require immense resources.
This is our moment to show his family they are not alone.
Every donation makes a difference. Every share brings us closer to our goal. Together, we can give Shmuelik the chance to heal and rebuild his life.
Every moment counts—spread the word and help save a life.
