Sapir Cohen's Story is a testament to the power of faith and courage in the darkest of times.

YATAR is the force safeguarding Israel with lightning-fast tactical ATVs. This volunteer counter-terrorism unit is turning the tide in border security and emergency response. YATAR's unique tactical ATVs are designed to respond swiftly to emergencies, reaching off-road locations quickly and serving as the first responders in critical situations such as terrorist attacks, infiltrations, smuggling, and uprisings. They are a mission-driven organization comprised of highly-trained volunteer soldiers, including former IDF combat soldiers and counter-terrorism experts. These soldiers undergo a rigorous selection process to join the unit. On October 7th, they lost 4 soldiers who died defending the kibbutzim and had 2 ATVs destroyed. Since that day, YATAR has been on the frontlines, operating their specialized ATVs inside Gaza–conducting reconnaissance and combat operations, stealthily transporting special forces, placing explosives in key points, and evacuating wounded soldiers. After revamping a portion of their fleet into medical evacuation ATVs, they have saved over 180 wounded soldiers from inside Gaza. Though many of their activities continue to be classified, their reach doesn't stop there. YATAR also has forces deployed in the Judea and Samaria areas, patrolling and responding to threats. With tensions rising in Lebanon, the IDF has dispatched a part of their unit to the northern border where they remain ready for any escalation. But YATAR can't do it alone. They urgently need your support to expand their security forces. As a 501c3 non-profit organization, your generous donation enables them to continue saving lives. With 12 new soldiers in need of gear and 8 ATVs required, your donation can make a difference. Each soldier costs $2,500 to equip, and each ATV is $85,000.
