The volunteer program at Chimes Israel is a vital pillar of our work. We believe that every volunteer, whether an individual or a business, is not just a helper but a true partner in our journey. Each person who gives their time, whether for a single day or throughout the year, brings lasting value to our beneficiaries and staff. Their presence sparks connection, personal attention, and a profound sense of belonging.
Power in Numbers: 120 Volunteers, 94 Businesses
This past year, we were blessed with 120 dedicated regular volunteers and dozens of occasional ones. Even more remarkable was the involvement of 94 businesses that chose to share their time, talent, and resources with us. Employees and managers alike rolled up their sleeves for days of giving, leaving a lasting mark on our centers and in the hearts of our participants.
More Than Just Hands, They Brought Heart
Volunteers brightened our facilities with renovations and makeovers. They created therapeutic gardens, built furniture, and designed adapted games. They transformed physical spaces into more welcoming environments, and above all, filled every room with joy, warmth, and energy.
Changing Lives on Every Level
For our children and adults with disabilities, every encounter is an empowering experience, an opportunity to meet new people, form friendships, and enjoy a more inclusive environment. For our staff, volunteers bring support and a spirit boost. For businesses and communities, these partnerships connect employees to meaningful social action and strengthen a culture of responsibility and care.
Looking Ahead: A Year of Shared Blessings
As we enter the New Year, may it be filled with opportunities to give, connect, and uplift. May we continue to meet new people, share our gifts, and spark new smiles. Thank you for your trust, dedication, and choice to be part of Chimes Israel. Together, we are building a community that enables every person to feel they truly belong.
With gratitude,
Maayan Maor
Director of the Volunteer Program, Chimes Israel
