| Jack the Bike Man |
|
| Jack the Bike Man Located in West Palm Beach, Fl., "Jack" Hairston created an unusual non-profit. He "sells" used bikes. He rehabilitates bikes and children. Actually, Jack donates most everything. Profits and donations provide after school support, mentoring, language skills, responsibility, family values, trust and self esteem with the local very poor and migrant community. Jack has a very special concern for the Guatemalan community. They helped him when he badly needed help, much as Guatemala helped Israel when she desperately needed friends as she struggled for life in 1948 and afterwards.

The Israel Free Loan Association, founded by Dr. Eliezer Jaffe, the father of efficient, direct giving in Israel, is uniquely suited to help people in the highest manner of Maimonides code of giving. Providing free "loans", the money is used, repaid and then reloaned again to multiply the positive effects to help Israelis regain their footing and control over their own lives. A free loan is not a hand out but a hand up.

http://www.yadeliezer.org Yad Eliezer, is an apolitical, grass roots movement that has grown to help the desperate needs of many throughout Israel faced with poverty. As simple as a food bank and as complicated as helping with basic human survival, clothing, furniture, shoes, big brothers, financial assistance, etc., Yad Eliezer struggles to reach all in need.

http://www.intra.org.il/english.html The Israel National Therapeutic Riding Association is a unique therapeutic approach for people suffering from a broad range of neuromuscular and psychological distresses. INTRA is "a visual miracle", that does not make intuitive sense. INTRA actually helps people learn to walk again and helps them recover their sense of balance in life after severe trauma..

Humans and Animals in Mutual Assistance in Israel
Avshalom Beni rescues abandoned and abused animals. The animals, in turn, by interaction, rescue humans who have been abandoned and abused in a unique process of symbiotic therapy; Holocaust survivors, children and adults suffering from psychological trauma or the effects of terror. Somehow the animals cross the invisible barriers and connect to help when traditional therapy fails.
