"Or Haner" promotional film

Hi All,
  Thank to Ilana for the Or Haner promotional film in which spectators
  are solicited for contributions for cleaning the cemetery.
    Does somebody know for how long the collection goes on
   how much money was collected and how was the money used in
   cleaning the cemetery ?
   In the opening explanatory text ,there is an observation that cannot be
overlooked.
      The profundity of thought is worth all of our admiration .
      Here is what it says on the conditions of the graves:
       "Many graves are neglected because there is nobody to take care of
them ."
         For all those who thought differently.

                          Hardy
