With the longstanding support of a dedicated US donor who wished to direct his donations for the benefit of the Matte Asher regional council’s residents, The Galila Foundation together with Matte Asher’s welfare department staff operate this special fund.
Following a comprehensive research process of the best way to respond to emergency health and welfare incidents among the residents, a committee of Matte Asher professionals including social workers and health workers was founded, and they set the criteria by which the council’s residents would be able to receive the required assistance, under the supervision of Matte Asher’s Social Welfare Department.
