Healing Communities

In the wake of the Hezbollah attack on Majdal Shams, where a rocket tragically claimed the lives of 12 children playing on a soccer field, Shai Fund president Charmaine Hedding visited Northern Israel, near the Syrian border, to deliver aid directly to those affected.

Among the aid delivered were art therapy materials, a crucial component of our ongoing humanitarian mission to support affected communities across Israel. In response to the profound heartbreak and trauma experienced by families and friends in the Golan Heights, Shai Fund's art therapy kits are providing essential support, helping individuals begin their journey toward healing.

These specialized art therapy materials and tools enable therapists to offer counseling and solace, aiding the healing process by allowing people to express grief and process trauma creatively. This approach taps into fragmented emotions, offering a pathway to recovery for those deeply affected by the crisis.

Thanks to your dedicated support, this vital assistance is reaching more communities throughout Northern and Southern Israel. As our team continues to deliver these tools and educational resources, we are helping to build resilience in communities suffering unimaginable loss, giving them the space and means to begin healing.
