Keren Malki – The Malki Foundation
We are passing on this message about Keren Malki, which we think is very worthy of your support.
Dear friends,
My wife Frimet and I set up Keren Malki in 2001. Now the foundation that bears the name of our murdered daughter is embarking on a full week of awareness-raising activities in the UK. I am writing to ask you and other friends and personal contacts in the UK to help make this a success.
As I hope you agree, Keren Malki has established a track record of which its supporters can be proud. Day by day, it does a great deal of good in helping families who live in Israel and who care at home for a child with serious disabilities. The work of Keren Malki has always been, and remains, non-sectarian and non-political. The focus is firmly on the child with special needs, and the child’s supportive family.

This Cardboard Bike Could Change Transportation As We Know It
The trend toward budget-friendly transportation has taken many twists and turns in recent decades. We can now eschew extreme gas prices with solar-powered cars or fly across Europe for mere pennies thanks to low-cost, no-frills airlines. But one Israeli inventor has dreamed up a transportation innovation with the fewest frills imaginable.
Fifty-year-old Izhar Gafni has reimagined the classic form of the bicycle, telling Reuters that his latest prototype of a cheaper, greener, lighter, stronger and socially-beneficial bicycle will begin rolling off mass production lines in a few months. The catch? The bike is made entirely out of cardboard.
