New initiative called “Stones with a Human Heart”

A new initiative called “Stones with a Human Heart” is a wonderful and very warm project which honours the fallen soldiers who lost their lives and are buried in Israel, giving family members from overseas the opportunity to lay a stone on the graves of their loved ones from afar on Yom Ha’zikaron.

The project was launched in 2020, due to travel restrictions caused by the Corona crisis, which prevented relatives from visiting the graves of their loved ones. Thus, the main goal is to show solidarity with the bereaved families, who cannot come to Israel to visit graves.

The Corona Heart-Stones with a Human Heart project enables volunteers to place thousands of stones in dozens of cemeteries across Israel for bereaved families of fallen IDF soldiers.

Last year, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Israel assisted in the project. We will continue to participate this year as well, because we attach great importance to this activity.

Kindly click on the link below and fill out a form, in order to order a stone. Volunteers for the project will decorate them according to the family's request and place it on the grave.
