“Giving is receiving.”

As part of the ongoing work of the Or Ein Sof Foundation, we remain deeply committed to mutual responsibility, giving back, and showing our appreciation for those who dedicate themselves to the security and resilience of the State of Israel.

This week, we had the privilege of making a donation to the Yahalom Association, an organization dedicated to supporting the soldiers and veterans of the Yahalom Unit, bereaved families, wounded soldiers, and those coping with post-traumatic stress. The association provides a broad network of support, guidance, and care for those who devoted themselves to defending the country, even years after completing their service.

We believe that our responsibility as a company extends far beyond the business world. Alongside our professional endeavors, it is important to us to support meaningful initiatives that strengthen Israeli society and express our gratitude to those who have carried the burden of protecting us all.

For us, every contribution is far more than the transfer of resources, it is an expression of appreciation, commitment, and partnership in a shared journey.

We are proud to support the important work of the Yahalom Association and wish them continued success in providing support, hope, and strength to the unit’s soldiers, veterans, and their families.

As part of the ongoing work of Keren Or Ein Sof, we continue to act driven by a deep commitment to mutual responsibility, giving, and strengthening the community in Israel.

Recently, we had the privilege of taking part in a unique and moving initiative together with Shai Graucher, who has been working tirelessly since the very first day of the Israel–Hamas war to support families, children, and orphans affected by the war.

We were honored to be part of this special project, through which orphaned children who lost their parents during the war – young football fans – are being flown to the World Cup for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Beyond the journey itself, this initiative provides these children with moments of light, hope, and joy in the midst of a difficult and painful reality.

We believe that acts of kindness have the power to truly make an impact, inspire, and create change, and we are proud to stand alongside initiatives that connect giving, humanity, and hope for a better future.

This is our way of expressing gratitude and appreciation to the heroes who gave their lives, and to the families who paid the highest price so that all of us can continue living our lives in this country.

Inspired by the remarkable contributions of Omer Kabilio, of blessed memory, the “Or Ein Sof” Foundation has chosen to honor him through his life’s work—the Mezuzah Factory in Nehalim.

Omer, z”l, grew up in Moshav Nehalim and graduated from the Nehalim Yeshiva. He was full of joy, kindness, and selflessness, always ready to give and help unconditionally. During his military service as a border fighter, he spread  happiness to everyone he met.

On Simchat Torah, October 7, Omer was called to reserve duty in southern Israel, where he participated in operations near the front lines. In May, while serving in Kiryat Shmona in northern Israel, we received the tragic news of his passing.

In his memory, we will continue to develop and lead the Mezuzah Factory in Nehalim, a place that embodies his joy and kindness. Together with the Nehalim family, we are committed to preserving his legacy.

The “Or Ein Sof” Foundation views this as a mission to honor Omer’s memory through social action, education, and community initiatives, inspired by the values of kindness, giving, and responsibility

The partnership between the Or Ein Sof Foundation and the television program “On a Positive Note” on Channel 14 was a complete success and demonstrated the power of genuine social impact.

Nonprofit organizations supported by the foundation received a meaningful platform and broad exposure, while recognition awards were presented on air to individuals who have dedicated years of service to the community-creating inspiring moments of appreciation and acknowledgment. The foundation’s ongoing involvement in the program’s content fostered a deep, authentic, and impactful partnership.

The season demonstrated how the right collaboration between a business organization and social initiatives can create real change. The Or Ein Sof Foundation played an active role in promoting giving, mutual responsibility, and social accountability.

At the “Or Ein-Sof” Foundation, we believe in giving back to the community and in the power of community events not only to bring joy and connection but also to support and strengthen the human spirit. The Simchat Beit HaShoeva, held in Rechavia under the initiative of Chabad House led by Rabbi Yisrael Goldberg, was an excellent opportunity to express the values of giving, joy, and connection to community work.

The special event not only focused on the spiritual aspect of the holiday but also served as a source of practical support for the local communities, with the “Or Ein-Sof” Foundation joining to support the community. We were there to ensure that the excitement and positive energy of the event would also translate into real support for those in need, including reservists and their wives who bear the daily burden, and injured soldiers.

This year’s Simchat Beit HaShoeva came after the events of October 7, 2024, which shook us all. In light of the emotional and psychological crisis caused by those events, this year’s event served as an opportunity to uplift the spirit, restore hope, and strengthen the community.

The central figure in this year’s event was the Hasidic singer and rapper Nissim Black, whose unique musical style managed to energize the crowd, lift the spirits of the attendees, and create an unforgettable experience.

Our contribution to the event was meant to ensure that the joy would not only be accompanied by moments of dancing and singing but also by a good deed that connects hearts and positively impacts the entire community.

“For man is like the tree of the field…” (Devarim 20:19)

At the Or Ein Sof Foundation, we believe in the power of nature and its ability to help us cope with emotional and physical challenges.

In response to the severe impact suffered by civilians and soldiers following the October 7, 2024 attacks and the ongoing “Swords of Iron” War, we are proud to support a groundbreaking therapeutic research project called “Forest Therapy.” The study is led by distinguished professionals in their fields, including Galia Ben Haim, Professor Itamar Grotto, Dr. Efrat Danino, and others.

Forest Therapy is an innovative and holistic approach that originated in Japan in the 1980s. It offers a unique, multi-sensory way of connecting with nature. It is not simply a walk in the forest, but rather a deep engagement with the natural environment, guided by trained facilitators, with the goal of promoting emotional and physical healing.

The study will involve 500 men and women from diverse backgrounds across the population and will combine the Forest Therapy method with comprehensive measurements of its effectiveness in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression, while strengthening participants’ physical and emotional resilience.

We believe this research has the potential to serve as the foundation for an innovative and effective treatment model for trauma rehabilitation, particularly for those suffering from long-term psychological effects resulting from the ongoing conflict and the emotional burden it has created.

We are honored to participate in the International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the symbolic Nuremberg Trials renewal held at the UN in New York. Professor Ernst Rudin, who escaped the Nuremberg Trials and passed away peacefully, was put on trial.

The trial, broadcast live on the UN TV channel, will become part of the Holocaust and Human Rights education program worldwide.

The trial included notable figures such as Professor Aharon Barak, former Vice President of the Supreme Court, Judge Sylvia Fernandez, former President of the ICC, and others. Young Israeli leaders, alongside carefully selected teenagers from around the world, studied the case for over a year, serving as prosecutors and defense teams.

Oren Cohen Group and the Good Deeds Foundation for Society in Israel, and the “Or Ein Sof” Foundation, believe in giving back to the community and fostering young social leadership for a better future in Israel, focusing on education, society, and culture.

“Atid Israel” is an organization and movement of activists within the Haredi sector, advocating for statehood and broad social action through various platforms and programs.

The association runs youth movements and educational programs focused on the history and national revival of the Jewish people in the spirit of Jewish teachings. It guides youth toward meaningful military service, provides support to those serving in the military, and offers career and social guidance to young people and veterans.

The uniqueness of the organization lies in its distinct Haredi character, adhering to high public standards, and serving as a foundation for implementing programs for statutory bodies.

The organization’s team was involved in establishing the Haredi tracks in the Givati Brigade—’Tomer’ track—and in the Paratroopers Brigade—’Hatz’ track. Today, after more than five years of operation, hundreds of Haredi soldiers serve in these tracks, many of whom take on leadership and officer roles.

In addition, the organization works through public and media tools, educational institutions, and community leaders, maintains continuous work on social media, publishes position papers, engages in press coverage, and participates in social conferences. Its goal is to integrate the Haredi population and heal divisions within Israeli society.

A big thank you to the Israeli Building Center, its head Eran Rolls, and Lev Cash Association for a moving and heartwarming fundraising evening.

A special thank you to Yehoshua Rauchbiner for presenting the sacred work the association does daily, for over two decades, and for the great honor we have, as a business entity, to support and give back to society and the community in both material and spiritual ways.

The “Lev Chash” Association is a humanitarian organization that has been operating for over 20 years, without profit motives, assisting all sectors of the population.

The activity began in 1997 in memory of Sarah Rauchberger z”l and Chava Zeibald z”l—hence the name Lev H”Sh.

At the time of the association’s founding, Yehoshua and Yaakov envisioned a charitable organization that would operate in Haifa to alleviate the hardships of the disadvantaged in the city and empower this population. They did not foresee that, over the years, it would become an organization dealing with such a wide range of areas, providing assistance to tens of thousands of people.

A big thank you to the Israeli Building Center, its head Eran A big thank you to Nah Korban from the Bat Melech Association,
who came to explain the sacred work they do daily, for over two decades, and for the great privilege we have, as a business entity, to support and help, and give back to society and the community in both material and spiritual ways.

About the Association

One in every seven women in Israel suffers from domestic violence.
Violence against religious and Haredi women exists similarly to the general population.

The “Bat Melech” Association was founded in 1995 by individuals working in legal and other assistance to women in distress, who saw the urgent need to provide physical shelter, protection, psychological and legal support to religious and Haredi women suffering from physical and mental abuse by their husbands and are in life-threatening situations.

We chose to donate to NCSY because we wholeheartedly believe in their mission and the positive impact they have on the lives of teenagers. Their mission to connect, inspire, and empower English-speaking youth aligns with our values.

NCSY has been dedicated to strengthening the religious and national connection of Anglo-Jewish youth to Israel since 2015. With a unique model serving boys and girls in grades 9–12, they provide a caring and supportive environment through their dedicated staff, including local branch directors and college-age counselors who have completed national service.

Through a variety of programs such as Shabbat weekends, learning events, cultural activities, and monthly large events, NCSY Israel creates opportunities for these teenagers to explore their identity, engage with their Jewish heritage, and connect with their peers. They address challenges related to cultural differences, social limitations, and the desire to contribute to society.

We would like to express our deep gratitude to Attorney Uri Benki, the father of Shira Benki, z”l, and the head of the “Derech Shira Benki” Association, who visited our office to explain the educational and ethical activities of the association, which aims to promote moderation and tolerance in the public sphere.

It is a great privilege for us, as a business entity, to help, support, and promote a better, more ethical society that gives every individual their place.
