Supporting Israel in Times of Crisis
Early on the morning of Saturday, October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists carried out the worst attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust. They tortured, decapitated, and burned alive children and adults, committing unspeakable gender-based crimes. By the end of the day, more than 1,200 Israelis were murdered, thousands were injured, and over 240 were kidnapped to Gaza—some barefoot and in their pajamas.
In response to this tragedy, we launched the Embrace Campaign, a comprehensive initiative dedicated to relief, rehabilitation, and resilience-building for those affected. Through the Center for Jewish Impact, Alumot Or, and SASA Setton, our social impact hub mobilized a support network to address both the immediate and long-term needs arising from this crisis. While our efforts typically do not extend to direct fundraising, the overwhelming sense of national unity in the aftermath of these events compelled us to take action and contribute to the relief efforts for our affected brothers and sisters.
We have focused our support on areas where we can make the greatest impact—hospital networks, child welfare, trauma recovery, and educational initiatives—leveraging our expertise and extensive network to ensure resources are directed effectively. As the situation continues to evolve, additional funds are being collected and allocated to new projects, recognizing that the road to rehabilitation is far from over.
This effort has been made possible by the generosity of individuals, foundations, federations, partner organizations, and the global community standing in solidarity with Israel.
