This is the largest single shipment of relief items sent into Bosnia from a private organization. In July 1995, Hadassah rescued 2 adults and 4 children from Tuzia and Zenica and airlifted them to our hospitals in Israel. They require long-term, costly care which no other country or organization was willing to provide. For almost 85 years, Hadassah has been involved in helping care for the sick and wounded, as well as rescuing those in need. Help us bring some measure of relief to the residents of war-torn Bosnia.
