Translate a Holocaust Survivor Rabbi's Memoir

Rabbi Eliahu Dermer was born in 1930 in Romania, and today lives in Geula/Meah Shearim in Jerusalem. Between his birth and today, he lived a fascinating life which includes surviving the Holocaust, making Aliyah to the Land of Israel, and befriending Christian supporters of Israel.

In 2009, he wrote his autobiography in Hebrew.

Earlier this year, Root Source CEO Gidon Ariel and his good friend Sharon Sanders of Christian Friends of Israel visited Rabbi Dermer in his small apartment in Jerusalem. After a few questions, the rabbi sighed, and said "all of my stories are here in this book."

But that memoir is unavailable for English speakers.

With your help, Root Source will translate, edit, and publish Rabbi Dermer's autobiography, for all the world to know.

Join our campaign today! As a supporter, your name will be listed in the book, and we aim to present Rabbi Dermer with an English edition of his memoir on his 95th birthday this year.

Let’s ensure his story reaches beyond borders.
