Ksyusha Zimiryova, 9 years old.
Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

Fundraising for a bone marrow transplant.
Fundraising goal: 100,000.
Hospital: Hadassah Ein Kerem.

Our world has become incredibly convenient.
To see loved ones, we just make a call.
To get a meal, we open an app.
Life gets easier, and we get lazier along with it.
We are successful.
We are grown-ups.
We are mindful.
But is there compassion in our hearts? ❤️

We scroll past other people’s pain: fundraisers, poverty, illness…
We glance at it and move on, as if it has nothing to do with us.
Convenience has made many things easier. But it is kindness that makes us human.

Here is a question we should each ask ourselves honestly:
how hard is it to make a donation today?
Four clicks. A few seconds.
Could we spare 20, 50 or 100 shekels?
For many of us, the answer is yes.

But how many of us will move on?
How many will pretend not to have seen?
How many will decide it is “not their concern”?

Please do not turn away from Ksyusha today.
Do not scroll past.
Do not leave her without help.

Sometimes a little help from one person becomes a great hope for another. ✨
