- Provide critical supplies for trauma and intensive care
- Ensure uninterrupted medical care under emergency conditions
“When you come to Hadassah, you understand why the people of Israel trust this place. Every time we visit, we are impressed and deeply moved. This is not the first time. We were here during the war, we were here after terror attacks, we were here in states of emergency, we were here for routine visits, and we were here during COVID. I want to thank all of you. Keep going. The people of Israel will emerge from this far stronger. And this place, I speak about it around the world all the time. If you want to know what Israel truly is, go to Hadassah.”
– Israel’s President Isaac Herzog, after visiting Hadassah Hospital, Ein Kerem, with the First Lady on March 2.
CHW stands in solidarity with Israel now and always.
