The Israeli Children’s Fund was established to raise money for Israeli children who have lost one or both parents in the barbaric Hamas attack on October 7. Funding will also be provided to children whose parents are being held hostage in Gaza. The Fund was established by some of Israel’s top entrepreneurs like Amit Rosenzweig (Ottopia), Tom Livne (Verbit), Yinon Costica (Wiz), Raz Abramov (EverC) and many more.

The Fund is looking to raise at least $100 million, for now. It is hoped that $100,000 will be provided to each child, including funding for education and other forms of support.

The Israel Children’s Fund says that since it was founded by a “seasoned” team of Israeli entrepreneurs and executives, they will ensure the “efficient and impactful allocation of resources for the sole purpose of children welfare.”

“When we embarked on this project, we had the tragedy and the humanitarian crisis following the brutal Hamas terrorist attack on Saturday, October 7th, 2023, firmly in our hearts and minds,” said Amoit Rosenzweig. “These children, now forced into a harsh reality, represent our collective future, and we are committed to doing everything in our power to help them overcome and thrive.”

The Israel Children’s Fund says it was founded to “empower Israeli children who have lost one or both parents to acts of terrorism or who have one or both parents being held hostage to thrive emotionally, and to give rise to a new, resilient generation by healing the wounds of the past.”

Early on Saturday morning October 7th, 2023, both the Jewish Sabbath and what was this year a holiday, Hamas terrorists launched a surprise attack on the towns of southern Israel located near the border with Gaza. These were not “settlements” in land acquired by Israel in the 1967 Six Day War, but communities that have been in existence for as much as 80 years.

In the attack, entire families were wiped out. People were burned alive in their homes, including babies. Innocent civilians were gunned down as they tried to flee terrorists by running away and in their cars. Emergency service workers like medics were murdered when they came to help the wounded.

And hundreds were murdered all together at a music festival that was held all night long near the border with Gaza. When people there took refuge in small concrete booths built as protection in case of rocket attacks from Gaza, the terrorists either gunned them down while they hid inside or threw grenades into the booths.
