The Ashkelon Foundation CEO, Meir Bohnik, said at the ceremony "Miriam has asked to donate to the city- the family club that is being developed through thanks to the funds of this contribution , will be a warm house for Olim children and citizens which need assistance. This is a real Tzadaka. Today we are proudly launching this ninth family club; the uniqueness of this building is that it has been designed as a family club up front. We plan to add an additional building to this location at an investment of 9 million shekels, a million and half of these funds are from Miriam donation. I would like to thank fully hearted in the name of the Ashkelon Foundation and the citizens of the city to the Heinrach family and generous contribution, also thanking the mayor and town council involvement and all volunteers- "all I have left is to wish much happiness, light and joy to the children at the family club."
