Roi Cohen – Gardener and Reservist
I’m a gardener based in the Gaza Envelope. My business helps restore gardens and green spaces, especially after the recent war. This loan will allow me to purchase equipment to resume operations and meet growing demand.
$27,216 Ouf Of $27,216
End Date: 16 Dec, 2024
My business now focuses on restoring gardens damaged by the war in the Gaza border area. Demand for restoration services has increased since I returned from reserve duty, but the war caused financial losses. To meet demand, I need equipment like a mini excavator to reduce labor costs and work more efficiently. This loan will allow me to complete jobs faster and help restore the region’s gardens.

My business - My spark
After serving as a paratrooper, where I was injured in Operation Protective Edge, I started my gardening business. Gardening connects people to nature and is my way of giving back. The war hurt my business, but with this loan, I’ll be able to buy essential equipment, rebuild, and restore the Gaza border area’s beauty.
A few more words
I’m Roi Cohen, married to Hila, and we have three children. We live in Kfar Maimon, near Gaza. As a reservist and gardener, I feel a responsibility to help rebuild my community. Gardening is more than work; it’s a way to bring healing and color back to an area deeply affected by the war.
