Founded in 2004, Notnim Tikva (Hebrew for “Giving Hope“) is true to its name!
For the past twenty years, our mission has been to be a ray of light to children and their families at the Safra Children’s Hospital in Sheba Medical Center, Tel-Hashomer, Israel.
Over the years, the organization has helped and supported thousands of children and families through every step of their hospitalization and, in many cases, even after they are discharged.
The atrocities of October 7th and the ensuing war emergency has led Notnim Tikva to pivot and leverage its decades-long knowledge, experience, and relationships to our IDF heroes who have given so much in defense of Israel and the Jewish people.
As the Israel Defense Forces engage in war, hundreds of soldiers have been killed and thousands more have been wounded. Hospitals in the country were not ready or equipped to handle the enormous number of wounded soldiers arriving daily, many of whom arrived at the Sheba Medical Center.
Through our vast – and growing –network of volunteers and dedicated staff, we diligently work to support and assist with the various needs of not only the children, but also our wounded soldiers and their devastated families who are now facing a new reality in life.
From material, emotional, financial, and mental support, to fundamental needs in almost every area of their new lives in the hospital, we are always there for them, day and night.
The Notnim Tikva organization is the only organization of its kind in this country to operate from withing the hospital. Our staff, which also includes National Service girls, collaborates seamlessly and in complete synergy with the hospital's medical staff.
Today, more and more soldiers arrive at the hospital, many of whom with severe injuries. From head traumas to injuries requiring amputations, all will need months, even years of rehabilitation. Many families have left their jobs to care for their loved ones, thus putting tremendous strain on themselves financially, physically, and emotionally. This is where Notnim Tikva comes in and continues to give hope to them all.
