Children Recovery Day
Join us to carry out this project and bring relief to the traumatized children of Sderot thru this well-deserved day of relaxation.
The situation of insecurity and terrorism that we face every day in our region where sirens are constantly heard announcing the arrival of more rockets fired from neighboring Gaza had severe consequences for the mental health of the population of Sderot, especially for children who are more vulnerable to contracting disorders and post-traumatic stress as a result of the harsh conflict, the sirens constantly sounding and the noise of the Rockets hitting the city or being destroyed in the air.
With the desire to bring relief and rest to so many children who still carry fear as a scar from war, we at "City Of Life" are organizing a new "recovery day" trip in an amazing water park with slides and children's pools after the success of the previous trip where we were able to witness how the children's spirits improved substantially.
These children are the future of our country and in our "City Of Life" ministry we consider bringing them hope and joy as one of the most important ways to support them at this critical time in their lives.
You can join us and together we can have the opportunity to reach more traumatized children to show them love and bless them on this day of recovery.

Increasing Trauma in Sderot
According to a recent study close to 56 percent of Sderot residents have suffered in some way from Palestinian rocket attacks.
Over 4, 000 Sderot residents and 86.6 percent of Sderot children aged 12-14 are suffering from symptoms of post-traumatic-stress disorder (PTSD).
PTSD is a severe and ongoing reaction to a terrifying ordeal that involved physical harm or the threat of physical harm to the person. The shock impacts the victim's ability to function for months after experiencing a Palestinian rocket explosion. Many rocket terror victims suffer from depression, sleepless nights, severe anxiety and have trouble going back to a regular routine.
