The wildfires on the Carmel Mountain have been extinguished but the emergency continues! The Carmel is devastated and vulnerable to additional fires. The fires took 42 lives, destroyed hundreds of homes, consumed over 5 million trees and destroyed 25,000 acres of forest. The people of Haifa and the Carmel need your help. We must stand and help the families who have been evacuated and who lost their homes, we must rehabilitate the Carmel forest and we must strengthen the fire truck brigade with uniforms, equipment and replenish inventories of fire retardent chemicals to start. Any donation is appreciated. For more information and updates go to www.haifa-foundation.org or contact our email us at lisaplant.haifafoundation@gmail.com
