<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Things can be bad. But they\u2019re worse when you have to face them alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take Avi, for example. He was in elementary school when his parents got the news: Cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lights went out. Their lives turned dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uncertainty. Which treatment should we pursue? Is a bone marrow transplant the best option? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concern. How would we juggle his treatment and still care for the rest of the family?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fear. Would Avi make it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His parents watched as the light went out \u2014 it dimmed from Avi\u2019s eyes, it disappeared from their home. The darkness shadowed over their family, as it does for thousands of families across the world. Avi\u2019s is far from the only one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But whether dealing with cancer, mental health, or special needs \u2014 there\u2019s a glow in the dark. There\u2019s an organization that shines a little light and helps them navigate the darkness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ezer Mizion gets 650,000 calls a year. They answer each one. Yes, we will be there for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will guide you through treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will drop off hot dinners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will find you a matching donor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will provide mental health support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will send volunteers to the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do they do it? What does it take to change a family\u2019s world for the better?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not much \u2014 just a little bit of light chases away the darkness. Ezer Mizion is holding a historic auction \u2014 one of the largest ever \u2014 and with each ticket that you purchase, you have the ability to replace darkness with light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The auction features dozens of brilliant prizes, and with tickets starting at just $18, you can win anything from your dream vacation to your own Sefer Torah (Torah Scroll) or from home renovations to jewelry. The two grand prizes give you the chance to win $100,000 cash or your own late-model car. By participating in Ezer Mizion\u2019s auction, you can help the organization to keep glowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, because of COVID, not only did Ezer Mizion\u2019s income lessen, but their call volume rose astronomically. More people than ever are relying on the organization and, more than ever, Ezer Mizion is relying on you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Families in Israel and around the world are relying on Ezer Mizion. You\u2019re the one with the power to turn on the light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
