Yuval was 20 years old when he watched his friends fall at Zikim Beach. He came home from the battlefield unable to stand on sand.
Every day, young Israeli soldiers return from Gaza carrying trauma most of us can’t imagine. Fear. Panic. Grief. Like Yuval, they come home changed—and desperate for more than just medical care.
Belev Echad is their lifeline.
Our Summer Recovery Programs aren’t just a break—they’re a turning point.
Through outdoor healing experiences, we help wounded soldiers reclaim what war stole: their strength, their peace, and their will to live.
- Surf Therapy gave Yuval his first peaceful breath in a year
- Adaptive Cycling rebuilds strength and independence
- Soccer, Hiking, and Team Sports reignite camaraderie and confidence
- Nature Immersion soothes trauma and sparks emotional renewal
These aren’t just activities. They’re medicine. And every step is led by trauma-informed guides—many of them wounded soldiers themselves.
Your gift sponsors a soldier’s journey back to life. It funds the gear, the guidance, and the safe space where healing begins.
Yuval is in the water almost every week now—surfing, smiling, alive.
Be part of that transformation. Sponsor a hero’s recovery today.
Help bring strength, peace, and hope back to those who gave everything.
