Yamtov is an Israeli organization that takes part in the rehabilitation process of hundreds of soldiers that experienced physical and emotional traumas during their service. Yamtov believes in the power of the ocean and incorporates surfing and sailing in its activities according the the needs Of the group. Yamtov’s methods are recognized as approved Sea Therapy for IDF veterans under the Israeli Ministry of Defense’s One Soul PTSD plan.
Yamtov believes in the power of the ocean, and works from Ashkelon in the south of Israel, through Hertzliya, to Haifa in the north, using the coastline as a tool.
For some, the Yamtov weekly meet ups are the only times they leave the house. For others, these meetups build confidence and new pathways in their every day lives.
Through the course of this latest war and the aftermath to follow, Yamtov is needed more than ever. While the staff consists of volunteers, there are still costs (such as equipment and insurance) - and that’s why we are reaching out to you today.
Every Meetup costs $200. $10,000 a year per group. Many new soldiers are waiting- and we are working to fund groups for them.
If you believe in the power of the ocean and are inspired by what we do we invite to take a part in our goal of rehabilitating our soldiers by donating here.
