Chai Charitable Foundation
IDF Widows & Orphans Organization





Since October 7, 2023, the number of children who have lost a parent while serving in IDF has more than doubled, and the number of new widows has reached well over 200.

The void left by a fallen soldier can never be fully filled. But with your support, IDF Widows & Orphans Organization can provide hope and comfort to the families who have paid the highest price for our country. From educational programs for children to emotional support for widows, and much more, your donation makes a tangible difference in their lives.

Established in 1991, the IDF Widows & Orphans Organization is an Israeli non-profit dedicated to supporting the spouses and children of Israel's fallen heroes. As the only organization endorsed by the State of Israel for this vital mission, we are deeply committed to providing comprehensive support to the widows and orphans of the IDF soldiers killed in defense of our country. 

Every single new widow and orphan of our fallen soldiers, police and other security officers are automatically welcomed into our fold, and our relationship with them is for life.

Together with our generous donors, we stand as more than just an organization; we are a symbol of Israel’s enduring spirit, united in courage, resilience, and the unbreakable bond of a nation's gratitude.
