The Ariel Center in memory of Ariel Goldsmith z"l

The Ariel Center is being developed as a state of the art Therapeutic Sports and Resilience Center, supporting Israelis facing trauma, including IDF veterans and reservists, families of veterans, youth at risk, first responders, and civilian populations. In the aftermath of the October 7 massacre and the ongoing war, many individuals are facing trauma and PTSD. Through therapeutic sports programming, participants rebuild strength, reconnect with their bodies, and gain tools that help them return to daily life with stability and resilience. With programs already operating nationwide, The Ariel Center is now entering its next phase. In partnership with the Lod City Council and as part of a joint initiative with the Israeli government, the Center will open its first permanent physical home in Lod in the following months, featuring a therapeutic sports center designed to play a crucial role in healing the nation and strenghening resilience. The Ariel Center was established in memory of Ariel Goldsmith z”l (Ari), a dedicated combat medic who believed deeply in the limitless potential of the human spirit. His legacy continues to guide our mission. *all GBP donations are for the youth resilience and education support civilian programme
