March 3, 2026 Update:

In 2025, this campaign raised $1M and supported 530 families. Those funds have been fully distributed.

Due to this new escalation, we are now raising an additional $500,000 to support 200 more families in urgent need.

What Is Happening Now

On Saturday, February 28, 2026, Israel and the United States launched a joint military operation against Iran, codenamed Operation Roaring Lion. Families across Israel are facing direct missile attacks, evacuation, injury, and loss.

Already:
• Fatalities have been reported
• Dozens are injured
• Hundreds are displaced from their homes

Families are waking up in the middle of the night to destroyed apartments, no clothing, no medication, no access to basic needs, and often with a spouse called to reserve duty and unreachable.

What La’Aretz Does

La’Aretz provides immediate, direct financial grants to families affected by war before state assistance arrives.

Fast, Direct, Accountable

Emergency grants of up to $2,500 are reviewed and distributed within 48–72 hours of approval.Our Proven Track Record

We support:
• Families of those killed
• Families of injured soldiers and civilians
• Families whose homes were destroyed or deemed unlivable
• Evacuated households
• Reservist families facing sudden financial collapse

These are not loans. These are direct emergency grants for:

• Food
• Clothing
• Medication
• Temporary housing
• Immediate survival expenses

In the last major escalation:

• We distributed 530 emergency grants
• Each grant provided up to $2,500
• Families in Bat Yam and other heavily impacted areas received direct, fast support

Over the past six months, we strengthened our emergency response systems to ensure faster delivery and more efficient vetting.

We are prepared.

You stood with us then. We are standing with families again now.

La’Aretz Foundation is a registered U.S. 501(c)(3) nonprofit. All donations are tax-deductible and go directly to verified families in need.

Why Immediate Funding Matters

Government compensation takes time.

Families need help within hours, not weeks.

A mother of five wrote in the middle of the night:

“My home was hit and is no longer livable. My husband is in the reserves and unreachable. We lost everything.”

These are the cases we respond to immediately.

How La’Aretz Is Responding – Immediate Help, Direct Impact

La’Aretz Foundation is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing immediate, direct emergency financial assistance to Israeli families impacted by war and terror.

Working in close coordination with local municipalities, hospitals, emergency responders, licensed social workers, and community welfare departments, we are deploying real-time emergency grants to families affected by missile strikes, injuries, evacuation, and displacement.

Each verified household may receive up to $2,500, transferred directly to the family with no intermediaries or delays, to cover urgent needs including:

Temporary housing and displacement expenses
Food, water, and basic household supplies
Clothing, hygiene items, and baby necessities
Medication and urgent medical costs
Transportation and essential living expenses

This campaign ensures Israeli civilians are not left alone while the nation defends itself.
This is emergency response. Help is needed now.

*Funds raised through this campaign will be used to provide direct aid to affected residents, based on real-time needs and in coordination with local authorities.
