She is the mother of six children, a music teacher from Toronto, Canada who created its own secret information network in Syria. Judy has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars in ransom payments to contacts inside and outside Syria, and managed to rescue entire families. She managed to rescue more than 3,000 Jews from Syria
