Our 3,000-strong volunteer force embodies the essence of selflessness and dedication, responding to crises around the clock. From terror attacks to natural disasters, ZAKA's presence is a testament to humanity's resilience and compassion. Our mission, "To save those who can be saved and honor what remains," is not merely a motto but a sacred commitment to life and respect.
Our volunteers, drawn from diverse backgrounds, embody unity and shared purpose. Their expertise spans across specialized units - from K9 to jet-ski teams - ensuring rapid and professional response across terrains and scenarios. Yet, their spirit of volunteerism, bridging societal divides, genuinely defines ZAKA.
ZAKA's influence transcends borders. Our International Rescue Unit, recognized by the United Nations, demonstrates our global commitment to humanitarian aid, responding with agility and expertise to international disasters and terror attacks.
Global Outreach
In recent months, our volunteers have been pushed to their limits, facing challenges that test our resolve and resources.
