This Sukkot, the Board of Deputies encourages the Jewish community to join our ‘Save a Seat at the Sukkah’ initiative – a similar one to that which we ran around Pesach. We urge individuals, families, communities, schools and JSOC’S to set an extra place at the sukkah for one of the 101 men, women, young adults and children still held captive by Hamas.
On our website, there is an updated folder of the posters of the hostages, alongside a story of each hostage. We urge you to share their light and share their stories. These are not just posters; they are whole worlds, testimony to those cruelly taken from their families in the most brutal way. We encourage you to share pictures of that seat with a hostage poster on social media, sharing the story of that hostage and amplifying their plight. Visit the Sukkot Ushpizin campaign site for more info.
