Be Part of the Jewish Community's Response to Help Victims of the Mount Meron Tragedy
It was one of the worst civil disasters in Israel's history. Forty-five people were crushed to death and about 150 people were injured, following a stampede that broke out during the Lag Ba'Omer celebrations on Mount Meron. Many of the wounded remain in critical condition, with children among the victims.

We are working closely with our partner, The Jewish Agency For Israel, to assess the situation and offer extended trauma counseling services for the mourners, survivors and others who need immediate support. 100% of your generous donation will go directly to care for the victims and necessary trauma support.
