An act of kindness

The following article demonstrates how an act of kindness can have far reaching consequences.

One of the victims of the recent terrorist shooting near Hevron was Kokhava Even-Chaim. Kokhava, 37, was a teacher in the city of Efrat. She was survived by a 10-year-old daughter and by her husband Maimon, a volunteer paramedic who was among the first at the scene of the attack that claimed his wife's life.
As Kokhava's family sat shiva, the seven-day mourning period, they were visited by neighbors and friends who came to give comfort and to share stories about Kokhava. One set of unexpected visitors shared a story about how Kokhava's kindness saved a young soldier.

I received an email about making a donation "to help the family whose home burned down last week on Shemini Hag Aseret in Brooklyn.
The family was celebrating and eating their meal in the Succah, when the house caught fire. B'S'D, an 8 year old child was niftar, and 7 others are being hospitalized for burns.
This family has nothing left, and needs our support. Please click the link below to donate to the family through our tax deductible organization Torah Learning Resources."
