Ambassador Arye Mekel greets Israel's Victims of Terror. NEW YORK- Ambassador Arye Mekel, Consul General of Israel in New York, met with 12 victims of terror on Thursday, July 28, 2005 at the Consulate General of Israel in New York. The victims are in the United States in behalf of the One Family Fund . At the meeting, Ambassador Mekel listened attentively to the experiences of each of the victims', some of whom have clearly visible scars, and are still receiving medical treatment for their injuries. In addition to the Israeli victims, Lauren Sokolow from Woodmere, Long Island, also participated in the One Family Fund event. Ms. Sokolow was injured in a terrorist attack on Jaffa Street in Jerusalem while she was visiting Israel with her family. The One Family Fund participants, who are either victims or family members of victims, are in the United States to raise money and awareness about the tragic effects of terrorism. Sarri Singer, the Director of One Family Fund’s Northeastern office, and herself a victim of terror in Israel, led the group in the US. One Family Fund was founded in September 2001 as a grassroots effort to respond to the unmet needs of victims of terror in Israel. Since its inception, One Family Fund has distributed more than 11 million dollars in various forms of financial, emotional, psychological, legal, and material assistance.
