HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR COOKBOOK

HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR COOKBOOK TOUCHES HEARTS
129” MIRACLES”- 250 GREAT RECIPES

iN 2005 Joanne Caras of Port St Lucie, FL visited her son and daughter-in-law in Jerusalem. Among the sites they showed her was Carmei Ha’ir, the Soup Kitchen where they both were volunteers. Carmei Ha’ir serves over 500 meals each day to poor and hungry Israeli’s.

So impressed was Joanne with the Soup Kitchen that she came home determined to raise money to support them.

For two years Joanne and her entire family worked tirelessly to collect recipes and stories from Holocaust Survivors. She has compiled them into an unforgettable cookbook.

“We asked Holocaust Survivors to send us their favorite recipe, photos, and also the story of how they were able to survive the Holocaust”, Joanne says.

“We collected 129 stories from all over the world, including Europe, South America, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, Israel, and many US states. Each one is a miracle!”

“In the introduction to our cookbook we ask each person who cooks one of the recipes to also read to their family the story that comes with it. That way, not only will we preserve the recipes, but more importantly we will help to insure that the stories of these brave Survivors will live on for generations to come.”

Cookbooks can be purchased at the retail price for personal use, or they can be purchased in large quantities at the wholesale price by groups who want to sell them to their members as a fundraiser.

Proceeds from every cookbook sold will benefit Carmei Ha’ir.

“Our goal is to raise $1 million for Carmei Ha’ir, and millions more for Jewish groups all over the world”, Joanne said. “In total we would like to sell 6 million cookbooks as a tribute to the memory of those Jews who did not survive the Holocaust.”

“Right now the demand is so overwhelming that we had to order more and more cookbooks from our printer.” Joanne said. “We have shipped cookbooks from Florida to Canada, New York to California, and all over the world.”
