Jewelry for a cause: Westport store sells items to benefit Israeli emergency service organization

A Westport accessories store has found a way to support the Jewish community during the Israel-Hamas war.

All proceeds will benefit the American Friends of Magen David Adom, Israel’s national emergency service organization.

Anne Delorie, Eleven 11’s owner, says she wanted to find a way to help those most in need.

“The response has been incredible we’ve tripled our orders, we just restocked yesterday after selling out for a third time. I think people are really touched,” says Delorie.

More than 1,400 people in Israel were killed and 229 people were taken hostage during an Oct. 7 incursion by Hamas militants. Israel has responded with massive bombardments in the Gaza Strip that has led to thousands of deaths.
