\"\"<\/a>Each one was unique yet each one was the same. Each reflected an individualized situation much exacerbated by the Covid-19 situation. Yet each one was a desperate plea, \u201cPlease help me!\u2019 sent\u00a0 to the \u00a0address they have come to rely upon. Ezer Mizion\u2019s Linked to Life is a whatsapp network spanning Israel and around the globe which receives requests that are as varied as those that send them. It may be a need for transport for an oncology patient, delivery of vital meds, putting together a Bar Mitzvah for a boy whose father is in serious condition, picking up\u00a0 medical equipment for a patient who cannot be released from the hospital without it. The list goes on and on.<\/p>\n

During the pandemic, the Linked to Life networks were on fire. Requests didn\u2019t stop. Linked to Life coordinated with other divisions of Ezer Mizion and was there for everyone in their time of need. Was it ten requests, a hundred, two hundred? and make no mistake. Each request did not have a one-step resolution. ‘I would check the network\u00a0 and come back half a day later and see 600 more.’ said a staff member who had access to the network.\u00a0 See chart above for the amazing numbers, all performed by our dedicated Ezer Mizion volunteers.<\/p>\n

At the same time, all the other Ezer Mizion divisions \u2013 Bone Marrow Registry, Golden Age, Special Needs, Mental Health, Cancer Support, Transportation, Food Disbursement – \u00a0were working at full speed. \u00a0If we were to add those numbers, the totals would be mind boggling! \u00a0How does this happen? Because of you, our invaluable friends and supporters!<\/p>\n
