To donate to Navah’s emergency fund
During the war, Navah supports and assists the families through the following unique initiatives:
"Accompany & Embrace”
Dozens of Navah volunteers stand by to assist families of the Swords of Iron War victims during funerals, distributing hundreds of kits containing beverages, printed prayers, and yarmulkes, and are available to assist with anything needed. This initiative involves the coordination of volunteers nationwide, obtaining and printing supplies, and the hiring of procurement and logistics staff.
"Together We Find Strength”
Support meetings for bereaved families experiencing secondary trauma during wartime
Navah organized daily activities for bereaved families from past tragedies with the goal of alleviating the emotional strain, anxiety, and secondary trauma that affect every bereaved family in Israel. These activities included empowering Zoom meetings with content tailored to the group’s needs, featuring lectures and workshops by trauma therapists and psychologists and activities for children
