Yes, firewood is expensive. 10 shekels per kilo. We need more than 8 kilos daily because we are a big family.
Where do we get 80 shekels for firewood every day?

Our children go out to search for plastic and paper in the streets.

I light the fire with wood and plastic far away from people. I light it very far away.
But only I cook on it and sit in front of it.
Plastic smoke doesn't hurt anyone, it only hurts me.

What should I do, my friends?

To get the firewood my family needs, we have to save 80 shekels every day, which is a large amount. We can buy better food instead with this amount, so that no one in the family remains hungry.

This is an old photo, and it’s true, I burned all that plastic in one session to feed the fire. I do that most days.

Anyway, today for breakfast, we ate cheese and beans and my mom made tahini. It was delicious.
I wish I could show you, but my friends, I don't have time to take pictures. Everyone is hungry, and when he puts the food down, they eat it right away.

I will try to take a picture before my brothers and their children come 😂😅

What do you normally have for breakfast?
If you can help us to get more delicious food, or if you can help us to use more firewood and less plastic, please donate to my brother’s fundraising campaign:

Otherwise, please comment and share.

May God bless you, may He bring breakfast to you every day, and may He protect us from plastic smokes.
