Victims of Terror:
Immediate financial assistance to the 2,000+ families of individuals who have been killed, wounded, or kidnapped. -
Evacuation and Support for Frontline Communities:
Evacuation of residents from the south to safer parts of Israel; providing frail elderly and others who cannot leave their homes with food, generators, and medical services; supporting youth activities; and providing emergency cash assistance. We are also helping towns replace essential security and emergency services infrastructure and equipment; assisting agriculture businesses that have sustained tremendous losses. -
Emergency Medical Assistance and Healthcare:
Providing medical supplies and equipment for first responders and hospitals in the south. Supplies intended for months have been used up in days. The need for lifesaving equipment like X-ray machines, infusion pumps, and operating tables is greater than what hospitals have on hand. -
Support Emergency Operations and Recovery Efforts:
The demand for first responders is unprecedented. Ambulances are in need of supplies, medics are in need of protective gear to treat victims even while rockets are incoming, and the bodies of those who have died must be collected and cared for with dignity. -
Special Populations:
Offering targeted assistance to vulnerable populations and their caregivers, including the elderly, young children, people living with disabilities, and marginalized populations, such as the Ultra-Orthodox and Bedouin communities. As well specialized support for Holocaust survivors. We are providing trauma care, food, medication, and homecare to survivors.
