In the aftermath of the heinous Hamas attacks on October 7th, the urgent need for support in helping Israeli teenagers and young adults confront the profound trauma is undeniable. Within the first week of the war, “Tools from the Waves” was created as an adapted version of HaGal Sheli’s PTSD program, operated in partnership with the Israeli Ministry of Defense Rehabilitation Department, providing immediate assistance to Israeli youth from Israel’s southern Gaza Settlement communities. This program is a response to the complex traumas inflicted by the attacks and is dedicated to providing immediate assistance to those affected.
The “Tools from the Waves” Emergency Trauma Intervention Program is currently operating, helping 400+ evacuated children and youth from the neighboring Gaza communities..
Our goal is to reach over 1,500 evacuated youth who need us most.
HaGal Sheli (My Wave) was established in 2013 to provide at-risk youth a real opportunity to ride the wave to a better life. Utilizing surfing as an empowering educational tool, HaGal Sheli empowers youth from all walks of Israeli society. We thank you for your contribution!
