The Hapoel Tel Aviv and Hapoel Haifa football clubs join forces for a noble cause - raising funds for drug treatment to save the lives of Orit Maman Rada, the sister of Hanan Maman, the current Haifa player and Tel Aviv in the past.
Before the game between the teams on Saturday, the players will wear T-shirts with a call for donations for Orit's expensive treatment, and later a short ceremony will be held.
"The team players and the professional team have already donated for Orit - and we call on everyone to donate according to their ability," the joint statement from the teams said.
Hapoel Tel Aviv CEO Odelia Friedman: "We found it appropriate to make our modest contribution to the battle for the life of Orit Maman Reda. No one can remain indifferent to such a story. Beyond the financial contribution of the team and players, we will continue to help raise awareness of the story. The place to wish Orit good health and call on everyone who can help - to donate for her salvation. "
Hapoel Haifa CEO Oren Sterling: "As soon as we learned of the distress Orit, our friend Hanan's sister, was in, the club joined several channels to help.
Among other things, I asked Hapoel Tel Aviv CEO Odelia to hold a joint ceremony that would give exposure to the issue and help raise funds.
"To my delight, the management of Hapoel Tel Aviv showed good will, understanding and humanity and agreed to hold the joint ceremony and we thank them for that."
