Zimra V’Chesed in Eretz Yisrael was established more than twenty years ago to help mental health patients in Israel. The nonprofit’s volunteers visit mental health institutions throughout the country to bring happiness, to help and encourage mental health patients in a variety of ways and activities, through support in difficult times, with love and kindness. Zimra V’Chesed runs many activities for the patients to bring a bit of color into their difficult lives.
Mental illness is a terrible condition that interferes with basic functioning and can impair one’s daily life, but often mental illness is highly treatable.
ZIMRA V’CHESSED works with a team of highly professional volunteers to offer friendship, warmth, sympathy and happiness, which are the key ingredients to good mental health.
