Chavalim Sheli

After suffering tremendously from a disease of pregnancy (Hyperemesis Gravidarum), Chavalim Sheli was founded to empower women with the medical information they need in order to access appropriate medical care for themselves and their unborn children. Attached, please find a brief overview of our work. Chavalim Sheli is an organization staffed entirely by volunteers, with no rented space. Our budget is small: $5,000 per annum. Consequently, even small donations make a big difference to us. And yet we make a huge difference to hundreds of women in Israel. Every donation goes directly to support women struggling with Hypermesis Gravidarum, and with your help, we can ease the suffering of these women and their families. Please help us continue helping them.
