Support Israel



Supporting Israel's Youth and Adults for a Healthier Population and a Happier Future
There are many ways you cansupport Israel. There are also many reasons to give.

Supporting Holocaust Survivors

Even though many Jews living in Israel today are too young to have lived through the Holocaust, the affects the Holocaust has on families is still very much present. Adult children of Holocaust survivors grew up with parents who suffered trauma and are in turn likely to suffer from depression and other conditions that make it harder to function in daily life and even provide for their own children. The financial, nutritional, and psychological support that charitable giving provides for these families can really make a huge difference in helping them be healthier and more functional, and it will give the children in these families a better chance to grow into healthier adults both mentally and physically.

Supporting Youth Organizations

A healthy and happy life starts with the supporting the younger generation. Tosupport Israel by donating to its youth programs means that the next generation will be made up of adults who lead better lives for themselves and their communities. Donations to youth programs help with education, character building, and helping to instill good values like altruism and valuing the whole community's well-being. Israel's youth can greatly benefit from this kind of support that aids in healing the past in order to have a brighter future. 



Supporting Micro-Businesses To Help Create Work Opportunities for Those Most In Need

It is not well-known that Israel's economy has poverty levels that are some of the highest in the OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development), along with limited employment opportunities. A great way to support Israel being a better place to live for its citizens is to donate to charities that support micro-business development. Micro-businesses provide people in the situation of working poverty and the unemployed the ability to obtain core capital that enables them to develop their businesses and in turn create more jobs to help the unemployed. However you chose to donate, every dollar counts toward helping to support Israel and its people create better lives and a happier future.
