A Giving Hand Promo Video

[Music] There are so many couples. in our community that get married with the same dream you and I had and so many of them all of a sudden 3, four, 5 years in, it's not happening the way they expected. Every day becomes a struggle. Every hour becomes it becomes hard to look at your phone. It becomes hard to go to a wedding. It becomes hard to go to a bris. It becomes hard to talk to your sister because you're listening to her baby crying in the background and she's acting like the baby's annoying. And for you, it's all you dream of. A giving hand is one of the most incredible organizations in our community. A young couple decided to take upon themselves to help everybody else. The story of a giving hand began 3 years ago. Golden and I from our personal challenge with infertility felt the need to give back to the community and serve as a funer for fertility treatments. [Music] What we learned over the last three years is not every situation is the same. There's other factors that come into play. Some couples are just getting married. They're married for a year, two years. Some couples are married a little longer. Some of the couples have been blessed with children naturally and now they run ran into a block and now they're having issues. There are male factors, there are female factors, very complex issues. What we've been dealing with helping these couples is a toz. Getting phone calls from these young girls in their 20s start just starting their lives and then figuring out that they they have to go through something called IVF and they have no other option and nobody else to turn to. You feel lost. You feel helpless. You feel like you have nowhere nowhere to go and and don't know what to do. And they feel like they're in the dark. Infertility is not only financially draining, it's emotionally draining, psychologically, religiously, spiritually. It hits on all fronts. When we first got married, it was 19 years ago. Infertility was never ever spoken about. If you couldn't have a child, you just had to suffer in silence. This is something that, you know, you can't really just solve. You have to go through the motions. And the motions were difficult. I knew what other people were going through. So, we were just trying to help guide them and lead them in the right direction. The ideas that we had, the things that we did. Since the inception of a giving hand, we've helped 110 couples. We've distributed $900,000 directly to fertility clinics and doctors. And by hashem, 36 children have been born to date. And if I have three words for Meer and Gold, it's powerhouse couple. They're the softest, most wonderful couple that you can meet. They're so selfless that instead of worrying about themselves, they're worried about other couples and how they could bring more babies into this world. What they did in the past 3 years, I don't think I'll ever do in my lifetime. I actually got a FaceTime call when the baby was born. Minutes when she was born, she facetimed me and she said, "This is Auntie Gold. She's always going to be your auntie Gold. We didn't just help her for the 9 months. She's going to be my child forever. The excitement he had when I finally told him that my wife was pregnant. I mean, we we weren't telling anybody cuz we we were just scared. But I remember when Ma reached out, it was it was just it felt like telling my father. I was just so grateful to a giving hands for helping us get past that really difficult time where we didn't know how we were going to pay for everything and get through all of these challenges. There's no better feeling in the world knowing that when we write out a check. It's not just writing out a check. It's letting this couple know you're not alone. We're here with you every step of the way. We understand exactly what you're going through and we're going to be here through thick and thin. Today, our request of you is, can you be a giving hand for so many young couples to be able to meet their dreams? Because without your financial support, that child would not have been born. You help a couple bring a child. You're bringing a world. We all know the immense reward that you receive when you support an organization focused on creating lives. There's no greater gift in the world you can give someone maybe sometimes even more valuable than their own health than to give them a child that makes sure that their legacy and that their life lasts forever. Any person that decides to stick out their hand and give to a giving hand and help families meet their dreams, help young couples see everything that they hope for. My to you is that you will see all of your dreams for you, for your children, for your family, and all of the that you're trying to give other people. Hashem should shower tenfold to you. [Music]
