Operation Breath of Life

Yad Sarah, Israel's largest medical equipment and supplies lending NGO, is facing a life-endangering deficit in its inventory of Mobile Oxygen Generators and is in urgent need of additional Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) machines.  Since October 7th, the organization has allocated a full year’s worth of medical equipment - including oxygen generators and CPMs - in the span of three months to address the urgent needs of civilians and soldiers affected by the Israel-Hamas war. The current shortage of these vital medical devices is exacerbated by shipping delays and increased costs due to maritime hostilities in the Red Sea, and requires immediate action. To bridge the gap, Yad Sarah seeks urgent funding to purchase and airlift 1,000 units of Mobile Oxygen Generators, each currently priced at $1430 and 250-500(subject to availability) CPM machines priced at $1,390. This will enable the organization to provide essential respiratory support through loans of the oxygenerators and rehabilitation of knee & hip injuries to those who may not be able to procure a CPM elsewhere due to high costs and nationwide shortages.
