Crypto Aid Israel, a collective of local leaders in the crypto space, is pleased to report substantial progress in our mission to support Israelis affected by the ongoing wave of Hamas terrorism. The community-backed initiative has raised over $185,000 USD (approximately 700,000 NIS), representing a testament to the solidarity and collective power of the Web3 and crypto community.
Over 30 companies have rallied to support the cause, with notable participation from accounting giant KPMG which is providing assistance with fundraising and distributions. Other major companies contributing to the campaign via awareness or financial contributions include crypto wallet provider Zengo, Fuse, Wonderland, Psagot Equity and many more.
Crypto Aid Israel is also proud to announce two completed rounds of aid distribution to several organizations at the forefront of the relief efforts. These contributions, totalling 200,000 NIS, are intended to make a tangible impact on the lives of those in need.
The NGOs who have already received funding from Crypto Aid Israel include:
Foundation for Advancing Citizens of Eshkol Regional Council
This organization supports the well-being and resilience of Israel’s southern communities, particularly in times of conflict, by providing essential services and products.
Funding went to supporting the transportation and shelter needs of citizens who, despite residing in areas close to Gaza, are not officially recognized as such by the Israeli government. This assistance enables impacted individuals to seek safety and refuge.
Zaka
This is an Israeli volunteer-based NGO specializing in search and rescue, disaster response, and emergency medical services, often working in the aftermath of major incidents and emergencies.
Funding went to securing critical medical equipment and ceramic vests for Zaka’s volunteers who are operating on the front lines.
