Tel Aviv, 15.10.23 – In the wake of the horrific terrorist attack on October 7th, which targeted innocent Israeli civilians, including many children, Make-A-Wish Israel stands as the sole organization dedicated to granting wishes to children who have been victims of such traumatic events.

The attack, orchestrated by Hamas, resulted in the rape, injury, and loss of hundreds of Israeli lives, leaving a profound impact on countless families, especially the children who witnessed or experienced these horrors. In this time of darkness, Make-A-Wish Israel is committed to bringing light into the lives of these young survivors.
