The space created between person and person, and between person and horse, is the essence of our project called Natural Connection. A group of 10 veterans, volunteers, and participants ride horses together in nature. Something happens during the ride, sitting under a tree, enjoying the scenery, and strengthening the bond between them. Ultimately, the group becomes a family. The Natural Connection Project is part of the “Rope Couple” project of the Atalef foundation. The project provides support to veterans struggling with PTSD. The group is divided into pairs, a veteran and a volunteer. These pairs will continue to support each other for years to come. The understanding that the trauma is not personal or familial, but rather a wound in the fabric of Israeli society as a whole, is a fundamental principle of the project. We all have a responsibility as a society to achieve healing and rehabilitation. This is for the sake of the unity and wholeness of the nation. In order to continue our activities for years to come, we need your support, especially during the complex and challenging times that the State of Israel is facing today. Key points: The project provides a unique opportunity for veterans to connect with nature, horses, and each other. The group setting creates a supportive and understanding environment. The project helps veterans to heal from PTSD and build stronger relationships. Your support is needed to continue the project and help more veterans. How you can help: Donate to the project. Volunteer your time. Spread the word about the project. Thank you for your support!
