ABOUT US
WHO WE ARE
Shevet Foundation is a non-profit community originally founded by fighters of the IDF Alpinist Unit. Our mission is to support and empower Israel’s community of wounded IDF veterans through a wide range of rehabilitative extreme sports programs.
We have extensive experience working with thousands of wounded IDF veterans, athletes with disabilities, and individuals affected by the October 7th War — with a special focus on amputees, lower-body paralysis, blindness, PTSD survivors, and with youth from the communities surrounding Gaza.
OUR TARGET AUDIENCE
OUR MISSION
Shevet Foundation leads rehabilitative activities based on extreme sports, delivered through personalized and dedicated training programs that significantly contribute to empowerment, social integration, strengthening self-efficacy, and improving personal resilience and confidence. These activities have a profound impact on the rehabilitation process, helping participants pursue full and meaningful lives alongside their physical or emotional limitations. Through these programs, participants regain independence and rebuild their confidence in life.
