About Us
The Israel Magen Fund of Canada (IMFoC), a Canadian registered charity that was founded in 2008, is led by an experienced, skilled, and dedicated Board of Directors and staff. Following October 7, 2023, IMFoC has mobilized to support vital search and rescue efforts, mental and physical health, and social services for impacted communities in Israel.
Our mission is to identify and support qualified institutions in Israel that require search and rescue, mental health treatment, medical equipment, and social services for the community.
With a strong commitment to internal operation efficiency, the vast majority of funds we raise are sent directly to our projects, ensuring that your contributions have a meaningful and immediate impact on the lives of those we serve.
To uphold our dedication to transparency, third-party audited financial statements are available upon request. These statements provide accountability for the use of your donations and demonstrate our commitment to responsible stewardship of your contributions.
Your continued support is not only valuable but transformative. Through your generosity, we can make a significant and lasting difference. Together, we are building a brighter future for Israelis. We are deeply grateful for your partnership in this mission.
