Israel Friends is a testament to unwavering support and humanitarian action. Operating under the wing of Worldwide Friends, a distinguished U.S.-based 501c3 organization, we were born from the collective determination of visionary entrepreneurs. Our origin was an emergency response to Russia's unjustified aggression against Ukraine, sparking our commitment to deliver critical aid on the ground. In resolute solidarity with Israel, our mission is clear: to provide essential humanitarian aid and tactical support exactly where it's needed most. Our approach is marked by thoughtfulness and deliberate action, ensuring that we adapt swiftly as the needs of those we serve evolve.

At POGO, we give kids with cancer the support they need–not just during the difficult time around therapy, but for years after when they can face complications from the treatments that saved them. Each year in Ontario, 400 children are diagnosed with cancer and 4,000 families are currently going through active treatment or follow up care. Many of these families are accessing POGO’s financial assistance program for the unexpected costs associated with a childhood cancer diagnosis. While 82% of children survive, many survivors of brain tumours and other cancers may face learning challenges later in life. POGO counsellors work with these young people to help them match their dreams with their abilities and move on to college or university. POGO also maintains an aggressive research agenda. We are asking the types of questions that will benefit these young cancer patients, their families and survivors—in Ontario and around the world—today and well into the future.

ICRF was founded in 1975 by a group of American and Canadian medical researchers, oncologists, and lay people who were committed to the growth and development of Israel and to combating the worldwide scourge of cancer. These visionaries were determined to harness Israel's educational and scientific resources in the fight against cancer, while stemming the "brain drain" of Israel's best and brightest scientists. Their solution: providing funds for postdoctoral fellowships for young Israeli M.D's and Ph.D.'s. Their solution worked. In addition to ICRF's many achievements and medical breakthroughs by ICRF-supported scientists, the organization now has operating chapters in six cities in three countries - the United States, Canada and Israel -- with its international headquarters in New York City, plus active Boards of Directors for each chapter, an International Board of Trustees, and International Scientific Council, a Scientific Review Panel and a Scientific Advisory Board.

From the website: "American Lebanese Syrian Associated Charities (ALSAC) was founded by Danny Thomas in 1957 to be the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and its sole mission is to raise the funds and awareness necessary to operate and maintain the hospital. In the years ahead, an estimated 89% of the funds necessary to sustain and grow St. Jude must be raised by ALSAC from generous donors."
