About

Meet Mashiv HaRuach

Our story

We started as a group of long-time friends with extensive experience in community and social activism, setting out with a sense of responsibility toward those around us and a deep desire to make an impact and do good.

When the events of October 7th shook us all, we knew it was time to act and leverage our knowledge, experience, and connections to provide a real response to the immense need that emerged.

We have recruited leading professionals in the fields of trauma, resilience, and post-traumatic growth, built partnerships with key organizations in the resilience sector, and gained the support and recognition of foundations and philanthropists who believe in us and our mission.

Mashiv HaRuach is currently the primary and only organization of its kind in Israel dedicated entirely to supporting caregivers and professionals within the support ecosystem.
