Supporting the People of Israel

Helmsley works to strengthen the health, safety, and security of the people of Israel, for the benefit of the country, region, and world.

We aim to expand Israel’s world-class healthcare services so that everyone in Israel has access to quality healthcare no matter where they live, strengthen Israel’s contributions to basic scientific, technological, and medical research, and promote global understanding and appreciation of Israel and its people.

We work closely with partners on the ground in Israel – government leaders, universities, health systems and nonprofits – to advance technologies, programs, and innovations that will improve the well-being of communities in Israel and around the world.
