240 Hearts Community Art Project + FUNDRAISER for First Line Med for returning hostages and survivors of Oct. 7th

Scroll down and choose your prints! At the moment only 130 of the Hearts are up on the site, but over time the remaining beautiful Hearts will go up too.

Hand-painted hearts created collaboratively and displayed in Bellingham, WA, after Oct. 7th, 2023 by members of the Jewish community of Bellingham, WA, and Congregation Beth Israel. (*At the beginning it was 240 because that was the original estimated number of hostages before it rose to 250+). Now available as prints or as folded greeting cards.

The profit raised from purchases will go to the organization First Line Med*, which gives medical and mental health support to the returning hostages and their families as well as to victims of the Nova music festival. https://anatta.org.il/en/projects/health-and-mental-health/first-line-med. I will update the number of cards sold and the profit made every month here on the page.

To donate a different amount instead of/in addition to purchasing cards: Venmo @miriams-garden or click here, and write that it’s for the Hearts.

*We hold the right to use a different similar organization if the organization First Line Med ceases its action.

Thank you for your solidarity and contribution!
