How is your donation put to work? Hadassah is the largest worldwide volunteer organization (over

300,000 members), the largest women’s organization in America, and it has international chapters in 28 countries, including Israel. Hadassah provides world renown medical care in its hospitals and clinics to all residents of Israel as well as people living in the West Bank and Gaza, no matter their nationality or religion. 

Hadassah physicians and nurses have eagerly provided training to foreign medical personnel, either by conducting clinics in foreign countries or inviting medical teams to Israel. Some examples of medical research and innovative treatments conducted at Hadassah hospitals and shared among colleagues are: cystic fibrosis, Parkinson’s, metabolic disorders, multiple sclerosis, stem cell research, Crohn’s disease, trauma, oncology, plastic surgery and more.

Palestinian children with heart problems are treated by a team of two Hadassah pediatric cardiac surgeons (one Palestinian, the other Israeli). Hadassah College in Jerusalem, Youth Aliyah villages for youths in crisis, multiple environmental projects in Israel, etc. are all beneficiaries of Hadassah which as you can see plays an integral part of the lives of people living in Israel. Research and innovations applied in those areas are highly sought after by other institutions worldwide.
