₪350.
That’s all that stands between a patient and life-saving treatment.
Uri, age 12, lives with Crohn’s disease — a severe inflammatory illness which, if left untreated, can lead to cancer and even death, God forbid.
The treatment Uri needs is included in Israel’s health basket.
The medication exists.
It costs about ₪10,000 per month, and his Health Maintenance Organization is ready to provide it.
But there is one condition: a monthly co-payment of ₪350.
A small sum — but one that Uri’s family simply cannot afford.
And so something unimaginable happens: a life-saving treatment remains behind the pharmacy counter and a 12-year-old boy's life remains at risk.
₪350 a month closes the gap.
When the treatment is given, the disease is controlled. When it isn’t - the riskgrows.
This is not a general donation.
This is saving a life.
Before You Decide
Uri is not alone.
Like him, 258 patients today are waiting for this exact co-payment.
The treatment exists.
The gap is small.
The decision is yours.
Will you be the one who knows that life-saving treatment exists - or the one who makes it possible?
