Samira founded and manages the "Yad Sara" branch in the Druze villages of Usafia and Dalit El Carmel on the Carmel, one of the oldest volunteers in the organization that celebrated 45 years of activity.
This week, an exciting and special event was held at the President's residence in Jerusalem to commemorate the 45 years of activity of the "Yad Sara" organization, at the event President Reuven (Rubi) Rivlin hosted the organization's 40 volunteers. The founder and chairman of "Yad Sara" Rabbi Uri Lupoliansky, veteran branch managers and the management of "Yad Sara" took part in the meeting.
One of the veteran volunteers who was present in the hall was Samira who lives in the Druze village of Usafia on the Carmel, Samira is the mother of Lieutenant Colonel Alaa Abu Rokun, who is the military secretary of the President's House.
Meanwhile, it should be noted that Samira established the "Yad Sara" branch in the Druze villages of Usafia and Dalit El Carmel on the Carmel, which she has been managing with faithful dedication for about seven years.
During the exciting event, President Reuven (Rubi) Rivlin said:
When I meet with an institution that has created a voluntary system that touches almost every citizen of Israel, the excitement in me comes from the heart. You are volunteers who attend their shift on a regular basis and reach out to anyone in need all year round and at all hours of the day, around the clock. It seems to me that there is no family in Israel that has not encountered "Yad Sarah", that has not found in the organization the answer to any physical limitation.
The President also asked to thank the volunteers for their service given to a large variety of populations throughout the country, adding: "This is volunteering given without bias, without distinguishing blood from blood, with complete dedication, endless professionalism, and humility.
A big thank you to you, dear Samira, and to you "Yad Sara" volunteers. You are there in the most difficult and sensitive moments of our lives, without bias and with endless professionalism. I wish you to continue your blessed work and that you will be able to reach and help everyone who needs you."
