The Ariel Center was established in memory of Ariel Goldsmith z”l (Ari), a Melbourne native, dedicated IDF medic who saved many lives, and a beacon of hope, who believed in the limitless potential of the human spirit. Ari passed away in 2020, leaving behind a legacy of kindness and leadership.
His philosophy forms the cornerstone of our vision at The Ariel Center: to help individuals from all walks of life, discover and Rise-Up through their innate resilience, strength and capabilities.
The Ariel Center will be a State-of-the-Art Sports and Cultural hub in Southern Israel dedicated to healing and empowering those affected by trauma through sports and active therapy. The Center will address the widespread impact of PTSD and trauma, exacerbated by recent conflicts, by providing essential support and breaking cultural stigmas around seeking mental health care.
