Making a Difference Through Our Grantees
United Hatzalah of Israel is the country’s largest independent, non-profit, fully volunteer emergency medical service (EMS) organization—providing the fastest emergency medical service throughout Israel, completely free of charge.
With the horrific events of October 7, 2023, top-of-mind, United Hatzalah of Israel was honored to be a recipient of an emergency grant from the Schattner Foundation, allowing the organization to purchase and replenish new medical equipment for their thousands of volunteers in Israel including defibrillators, oxygen tanks and tourniquets, as the volunteers continued to work feverishly to treat the wounded and save as many people as possible.
