Warriors of Steel

(Target date – September 2026)
Captain Dr. A' (Censored by order of the IDF), along with a first-class medical team, treated fighters with varying degrees of injury throughout the war, working around the clock and with an endless sense of mission. During the breaks in the fighting, Dr. A' made special contact with some of the wounded he treated. He made sure to visit them in the hospitals where they were hospitalized, offering comfort, encouragement, and monitoring their recovery and physical and emotional rehabilitation. One of the seriously wounded individuals was Staff Sgt. Omer Haberfeld, a soldier in a paratrooper reconnaissance unit. Together, they developed this unique project.
The project focuses on providing a rehabilitative journey, both physical and mental, for soldiers from the Paratroopers Brigade who were injured while defending their homeland during the ongoing war. The highlight of the project is the opportunity for the soldiers to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, which is the highest mountain in Africa (5,895m) and one of the seven highest summits in the world.
Life after the war is a journey filled with challenges, requiring resilience and determination. The wounded warriors fought in the war, and now continue to fight their own private battles. Some were wounded in body, others in soul, and now they set their sights on the horizon, facing significant challenges.
The essence of the journey and its purpose is not only to qualify for the highest summit in Africa, but also to symbolize their desire and commitment to regain their sense of ability after the injury and bring them as close as possible to establishing a return to an active and potential life routine.
We have not yet reached the target amount we need to achieve the finish line, and we have no intention of giving up on any team member.
Your support will help us reach the summit.
* In case the trip is cancelled or postponed due to a worsening security situation, the funds will be kept for a future trip or donated to support the rehabilitation of wounded and disabled individuals in the 'Iron Swords' war.
