businesses for Israel
IT'S TIME FOR BETA.
because everyone loves the comeback story...
The BETA ISRAEL Foundation supports Israeli startups and entrepreneurs called to serve the flag following October 7th massacre
WE ARE ISRAEL, BUT BETA.
Following the terrorist attack on October 7, citizens from across the country, many who work as entrepreneurs in Israel’s premiere high-tech industry, were called up or volunteered to serve in defense of the nation as part of the IDF active military reserves.
They left behind their families, their lives and their work to defend their homeland…
But they were provided with little to no support for their ongoing ventures, and with the entire civilian population mobilized for the war effort, no supplementary workforce was available to assist this highlight specialized industry.
We are Army veterans and active duty reserve forces who refuse to stand by and watch as our country is under attack.
We are industry professionals dedicated to providing critical funding for start-ups most affected by the ongoing war in Israel.
We are Israelis committed to providing critical equipment and top-tier emergency gear for the Tekuma or Revival of the Gaza envelope kibbutzim in response to any and all threats while they resettle our land.

YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS
The American Jewish community has a vibrant and philanthropic spirit and a strong connection to Israel. This commitment is rooted in a sense of solidarity and shared identity, fostering a unique bond that continues to transcends geographical boundaries.
Many successful Jewish American entrepreneurs, investors, and professionals leverage their expertise and financial resources to support the Israeli startup ecosystem and actively contribute to its ongoing success through first round funding, philanthropic contributions, mentorship, and collaborative initiatives.
The American Jewish community’s robust infrastructure and capacity for resource mobilization is critical for Israel at this time. The synergy between the American Jewish community’s commitment to philanthropy, and their capacity to organize substantial financial investment, will continue to foster mutually beneficial relationships, igniting innovation and economic growth in Israel, the United States, and across the world.
The BETA ISRAEL Foundation has partnered with The PFAP Foundation to facilitate philanthropic contributions and opportunities for philanthropic investment, ensuring a lasting commitment to the entrepreneurs and businesses we serve. The PFAP Foundation develops and sponsors projects advancing the welfare of Israel and the Jewish people in the Jewish State.
