The Rashi
Emergency fund

Israel is experiencing an unprecedented social crisis brought on by the war that requires ongoing aid and solutions.

The emergency fund established by the Rashi Foundation focused in the first months on immediate assistance to displaced families. Our main emphasis was on providing emotional, social and educational support for tens of thousands of children and youth in evacuation centers around the country.

Looking ahead, now is the time to work towards recovery and growth by strengthening the communities in Israel’s southern and northern periphery, so that they can rebuild opportunities for their residents and thrive once again.
