PROVIDING Critical AID
WHERE IT'S NEEDED,

Saving lives
Israel Friends, a North American nonprofit, was founded on October 7th in response to the urgent need for delivering critical aid and protective support to Israel’s heroes. Our mission is to ensure that this essential aid reaches those who need it most—quickly, effectively, and with maximum impact.
Our efforts include delivering critical resources such as:
- Protective equipment
As part of our mission of delivering critical aid and protective support to Israel’s heroes, we provide life-saving gear such as helmets and vests, ensuring frontline heroes are prepared for dangerous situations.
- Advanced Technology Solutions
To enhance safety and efficiency, we provide cutting-edge visibility tools like drones and camera systems, empowering Israel’s defenders with the resources they need.
Leading PTSD and Trauma Care
In partnership with the Ministry of Health, Healthy Mind, and Resiliency Centers, Israel Friends helped establish the #1 telehealth platform for PTSD and trauma care in Israel. This innovative program bridges the critical gap in mental health services, offering access to psychiatric care within five days—compared to over 100 days through traditional systems. By funding this program, we ensure those affected by trauma receive immediate, comprehensive care.
