Druze Arab Teen Helps Holocaust Survivors Use Technology
The Jerusalem Post reports Salman Kablan, a 15-year-old Druze Arab teen, along with his friends, started an initiative to help the Holocaust survivors in their city learn how to use computers. They train them to learn social media, order products online, and connect with loved ones. Kablan, whose family are the only ethnic Druze Arabs in their city of Arad, say he already knew a few elderly people, some of whom are Holocaust survivors in his neighborhood. He stated, “I would visit them and check on them. I felt their pain and that I had to do something for them.”
This story hit a day after International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It warms my heart in every way that Salman Kablan… a Druze Arab teen, is concerned for his Jewish neighbors who suffered through the Holocaust. I pray God raises up more Israeli Arabs like Salman that have a heart to serve their Jewish neighbors in need.
