Lights of Hope flag -
In honor of Israel’s 60th anniversary celebrations, "Elem" is constructing for the fifth time the “Lights of Hope Flag”, a unique social initiative that benefits youth at risk, complimenting this year’s government decision to put Israel’s children and youth at the center of Israel’s 60th anniversary celebrations.
The Campaign's luminous Flag of Israel composed of half a million individual lights will be prominently placed on one panel of the Azrieli towers, encouraging donations in support of youth. These donations are raised through a massive appeal to the general public requesting their participation by sending SMS messages.

Each donation, received by SMS messages, phone or credit card, will light a bulb of hope.

The donations collected throughout this project will enable the Elem to continue our voluntary and professional work for youth in Israel.

There are some 800,000 adolescents living in Israel today, of which one quarter are in risk and distress.

Elem has saved many adolescents in severe states of risk and distress in its 25 years of existence, with the help of highly skilled professionals and through over 1,500 volunteers, who are working around the clock in Elam's vital projects throughout the country.

There are over 2,000 lights turned on by now (over half). Check out for more details, and maybe to donate - http://www.hadegel.com/index.php?lang=en
