How Can You Lend a Hand Back at Your

Hillel and University Campus?

 

Hillel Projects & Yad Sarah

 

Yad Sarah helps with free or low cost services to help the injured, sick and disabled as well as victims of terror, children with special needs and homebound older adults.  Though Yad Sarah is best known for lending medical equipment such as wheelchairs and oxygen machines, its volunteers also drive the injured to medical appointments, help adults and children function independently in our day centers, provide in-home geriatric dental care and advocate for victims of elder abuse. With 6,000 volunteers in 103 locations, Yad Sarah is one of Israels largest volunteer-staffed organizations.

 

Your campus HILLEL community can help:

·                                    Sponsor a child and his/her family for a year in Yad Sarahs Play Center.  Enable children with special needs to learn and play in a safe environment and to visit Yad Sarahs unique Toy Library.

·                                    Organize an equipment drive on your campus and collect used wheelchairs, walkers and other items for use in Israel. 

·                                    Adopt a client in the Day Rehabilitation Center.  Help children and adults learn to be independent once again.

·                                    Bring support and comfort to an isolated older person with the installation of an emergency alarm system.

·                                    Dedicate a wheelchair, walker or an oxygen machine.  Invest in medical equipment to help children (and families) such as infant scales, baby car seats, lower arm crutches and reclining bath chairs.  Volunteers will lend this equipment, your gift can reach people in Israel over and over!
