Many people in Bat Yam are looking to the future with concern and sadness. Numerous homes were destroyed in the devastating rocket attack from Iran in June this year. Many families have lost their homes, their possessions, and their security. As a lodge, we have the opportunity—and also the responsibility—to show our solidarity. We are therefore calling for donations to support a specific project run by our lodge in Bat Yam.

On 28 August 2024, the symposium of the B'nai B'rith Frankfurt Schönstädt Lodge took place, an event that brought together members of the lodges from Europe and America. The day began with an impressive visit to the exile archive of the German National Library. Under expert guidance, the participants were given an insight into the treasures of the archive, which documents the eventful history of people who were forced to leave their homeland.

On the evening of 27 August 2024, the grand opening of the exhibition ‘Becoming a blessing for mankind...’ took place in the venerable Römerhallen of Frankfurt City Hall. This exhibition is dedicated to the history and work of the three Frankfurt B'nai B'rith lodges, the two Nuremberg lodges and the Mannheim lodge and highlights their significant contributions to society.

On behalf of the B'nai B'rith Frankfurt Schönstädt Lodge e. V., I would like to invite you to the vernissage and subsequent exhibition of the first scientific work on the lodges in Frankfurt, Nuremberg and Mannheim, representing all 103 B'nai B'rith lodges of the VIII. German District in the former Wilhelmine Empire, to Frankfurt.

When the first transport arrived safely in Lviv, we started work on the second. A shipment of kosher food for Passover was to be brought on its way to Lviv. No sooner said than done, everything was organized and 300 kilos of kosher food for Passover were sent via Frankfurt, then Monchengladbach to 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.

Together with the B'nai B'rith World Center Jerusalem, the B'nai B'rith Frankfurt Schönstädt Loge e.V. is committed to a project in Israel that assists and supports children whose parents have been victims of terrorist attacks.

Eden Residential Home for Girls was established in 2005 and serves as a framework for psychotherapeutic treatment of vulnerable and traumatized girls aged 12-18.

In 2014, we supported a B'nai B'rith retirement home in Haifa, where only Holocaust survivors live. For example, we had transferred donations for renovation costs to the old people's home.
