Crisis Response – Israel News
Israel At War – Updates from April 25, 2025
After more than a year of war, terror, and pain, Israel continues its fight for peace and security.
The people of Israel have endured unimaginable heartbreak and unprecedented attacks, and The Fellowship continues to support them with food, bomb shelters, emergency care, and security essentials.
To stay informed on events and issues affecting the people of Israel, read the daily Stand For Israel blog.
Your gift today can help us provide lifesaving help to the Jewish people who depend on us for critical humanitarian aid.
During this historic time, please continue to pray for the safe return of ALL hostages.
The Fellowship’s Impact
The Fellowship is assessing needs daily, as we are receiving an overwhelming number of requests for aid. Along with the day-to-day aid we deliver regularly to Jewish people in need, we are delivering aid to populations hardest-hit by this crisis, including:
· Evacuees from war-torn areas, who were forced to leave their homes
· First responders and volunteers who need medical equipment
· Elderly beneficiaries, families, and new olim (immigrants), who need necessities like food, water, medical equipment, and psychological counseling to deal with trauma
Since October 7, 2023, The Fellowship has disbursed more than $157 million in aid to support the ongoing emergency needs and to continue to provide assistance in our core program areas of security, poverty, and aliyah, supporting beneficiaries impacted by the war and ongoing conflict. This includes those most heavily affected–the evacuees, the wounded, and the first responders.
