Immediate Support of Victims in Israel

Donation protected
I am raising donations to support Israel's immediate humanitarian needs. The reason I created this page is because if the donation is made through my company, the donation will be matched on a 2:1 basis (meaning for every $100 donated, the organization will receive $300), see organizations below. UPDATE: Bloomberg Philanthropies (Thank you!) additionally offers a 1:1 match on donations to Magen David Adom (Israel's equivalent to red cross) for a total of 3:1 match!

I am horrified by the attacks that occurred in Israel over the weekend. Murder and kidnapping of women, children, elderly, bombing of ambulances and hospitals, and other disgusting war crimes. This is truly shocking and heartbreaking.
More Israelis were murdered in a single day, then in the last ~80 years since the holocaust. More Israelis were murdered in Re'ut festival alone, then in any mass shooting incident in America.

Many of you reached out asking how you can help.

As mentioned, first and foremost your assistance in condemning the atrocities against the Israelis and using your network to spread the word is the most critical thing I can think of.

Second, you can make a huge difference in saving lives if you can donate to organizations that provide immediate support of victims of this terrorist attack. You can donate to these organizations directly (or through this page so that the donation is matched), which I will list below.

When donating, please let me know which organization you would like the donation to go to. If you don't, I will choose one or more from the list below.

Thank you for your support, and kindness, may we not see another day like this anywhere in the world.

3:1 matching, including Bloomberg Philanthropies' 1:1 match (for every $100 donated, the organization will receive $400):
• Magen David Adom: Israel's equivalent to red cross and a national rescue organization

2:1 matching (for every $100 donated, the organization will receive $300):
• Israel Rescue (United Hatzalah): Provides immediate medical supplies
• UJA: Provides immediate relief to the victims of the vicious terrorist attacks


*I am going to continuously update this as new organizations are added to the list of eligible for matching.
