to go before tens of thousands of
tourists begin to arrive in Jerusalem
for the summer holiday season, Ezer
Mizion (Help From Zion) is gearing
up to meet the demand for its free-

gram.
Ezer Mizion is a nonprofit
organization in Israel dedicated to
assisting the sick and the handi-

According to Uri Ezrachi,
director of Ezer Mizion's
International Affairs Division, the
organization will provide rented

and transport by ambulance, should
the need arise. Medical consultants
will also be on call 24 hours a day to
help tourists obtain medical care.
Within Israel, the Ezer Mizion
hotline number is 02-537-8070.
