Great Resource - The Jerusalem Market

partner promotion

I just found out about this great new website, The Jerusalem Market, and I am so happy to be able to introduce them to you all. 

English speakers in Jerusalem - this site is FOR YOU! This is THE place to buy and sell things in Jerusalem. You can list anything you want to sell, from the smallest item to a whole household's worth of furniture. You don't need to code or do anything difficult to make your listing - they'll take care of putting up your listing for you once you contact them. They make it easy and FREE to list your item - just fill out a form or send them a whatsapp.

If you're buying a small item, they have a partner who will deliver it to you for a flat rate of 20 NIS, to most parts of the capital city. If you buy a large item, they have delivery options too! (Delivery is at the buyer's expense - but it's a super convenient option. I know I've bought furniture and then seriously struggled to figure out how to get it home. This way you won't get stuck standing in the street with a dresser - been there, done that!)

They have even figured out a way to reach the people who don't browse online: they send a weekly catalog including EVERY ITEM listed on their site by email to their mailing list! Those people can then contact the sellers, too!

So if you're looking to reach a wider market with things you're selling, The Jerusalem Market is where you need to be.

They also offer really reasonable premium packages for upgraded listings.

Here's a screenshot of some items listed there right now - you can see that people are selling everything you can imagine! This looks like a great way to get a Jerusalem bargain and an eco-friendly purchase, as there are a lot of people who buy nice things and then they end up moving or leaving the country not long after. This is a great way to save some resources! 

So if you're looking to buy something and Jerusalem is convenient for you, you should totally add The Jerusalem Market to your list of places to look!

Computer Gemach

This is a guest post by Shmuel Meyer. Please take a few moments to read about his wonderful computer gemach service! You can reach Shmuel at shmuel@meyer-services.com, or call him at 02-5862017. -Ester

The Computer Gemach
I have been an independent computer consultant since 1987. Over 15 years ago, I saw that my clients didn't have what to do with their used computers after they upgraded. I started to gather used systems and parts and put together working computers.

These refurbished computers are then donated to needy individuals and organizations. This includes people who are trying to get on their feet financially, sick children and various charity organizations.

The gemach (Hebrew for "acts of kindness") is just a one man operation. It is not a registered charity. That simply costs too much. I have been funding everything from my own pocket with very little help until now. 

However, I cannot continue alone. I need your help.

There is a need for what I am doing. People are always asking for help. There is no
bureaucracy here. People explain their situation and I try to help.

A side benefit is that it helps the ecology by keeping computers out of landfills.

I am seeking funds mainly to pay the rent on the small work and storage space that I use.

I am also trying to add 3 new projects to the gemach:
1) A lending library of computer books.
2) A lending library of software to learn computer related topics.
3) Lending of laptops for hospitalized people.

I have made appeals in the past. I usually get offers of a couple of computers. Sometimes the donor actual gives me the computer. But usually even that falls through...

You can find out all about my gemach on my website. Please check it out! In addition, I have created a fundraising campaign on Indiegogo. Please take a look at it and help out!


If you have any questions or need any further information, please
be in touch.
