"Do not be afraid"

With over one million people in Israel suffering from mental disorders, Israel’s allocated budget for mental health can only go so far and many are left without the means for proper treatment. Singer and composer Ehud Banai, and Yuval Banai and Shlomi Bracha from the Mashina rock band are partnering with the Awakening association, an organization supporting Israel’s mentally ill, to perform for a great cause. All of the evening’s proceeds will go towards the Oratory organization for the Manicar group, whose goal is to change psychiatric treatment in Israel and to provide rehabilitation to mentally challenged people who can’t afford treatment. A previous patient of the Manicar treatment program and now singer, composer, and music therapist at one of their health centers, will open the event along with another moving song written by a patient. Don’t miss this opportunity to help those in need, feel touched by beautiful stories, get swept away by lovely, empowering music, and support a crucial cause.
