Yad Sarah
will assist bereaved family members in wheelchairs to reach the graves of their
loved ones
In more than 100 Yad
Sarah branches throughout the country, thousands of volunteers raise their glasses in a
toast to a year of giving, a year in which more than half a million
Israelis will be on the receiving end of Yad Sarah's loving service and will be provided with
support that is much more than just lending wheelchairs

In
honor of Shavuot and the inauguration of Yad Sarah's new portal, Spokesman
David Rothner spoke with the founder of Yad Sarah, Rabbi Uri Lupolianski. Busy
as usual with meetings with division managers and directors on the development
of services and branches and the acquisition of new medical equipment, he
managed to find some time to sit down and talk about Yad Sarah – past, present
and future.
