Livnot has always been on hand to reach out to the nation and its people in times of crisis. Professionals, program participants and volunteers have responded to the call for help every time.

• Assisting with the needs of the civilian population in the wake of missile attacks on Israeli cities
• Renovating and repairing homes of families whose homes were destroyed by fire
• Providing physical and emotional aid to victims of terror attacks
• Gush Katif evacuees whose temporary homes were not ready when they needed a place to live
• Providing emergency supplies and assistance to absorption centers who unexpectedly received a huge wave of immigrants, along with follow-up aid once the new residents began to arrive.
• Helping Gush Katif evacuees whose temporary homes were not ready when they needed a place to live
• Giving emotional and other support to the Israeli Defense Forces during times of mobilization

All these were all answered by Livnot staff and volunteers in record time, and with love and personal care.

Since 1980 - Livnot has functioned as an "Emergency Relief Crew" in homes burnt by fire. Livnot participants and volunteered cleaned and renovated destroyed homes, helping families who had nowhere to turn to return to their homes in the most minimal time possible.

1982 – During the First Lebanon war, Livnot staff and volunteers helped receive wounded soldiers in the Tzfat Hospital. They also distributed food and toiletries to soldiers in main junctions near the Lebanese border.

1984 – During Operation Moshe which brought 16,000 Jews from Ethiopia, Livnot volunteers responded to an urgent request from the Tzfat Absorption center. The participants of the Livnot program worked for many months helping to prepare apartments and then, when the immigrants arrived, aided the families in getting settled and adjusting to their new lives in Israel.

1991 – As the country prepared for the Gulf War, staff and volunteers distributed gas masks, and helped create a safe space ('sealed room'), in the homes of sick and elderly people who couldn't prepare the space that the HomeFront Command had requested that all residents ready. During the war, Livnot distributed food and medications to individuals and families who could not leave their homes.

1991 – Over one weekend in May, 14,000 Jews were brought to Israel from war- stricken Ethiopia, in a meticulously planned military operation. Hundreds of families were sent to Tzfat. For the second time, Livnot staff and volunteers were asked to prepare apartments, prepare food, and upon arrival, help the immigrants adjust to the new life. To this day, Livnot is reaching out to the immigrants by repairing their homes, running Bar and Bat Mitzvah training, and even offering jobs and professional training.

From 2000 – Livnot has been helping terror victims in their homes and in hospitals.

During the most difficult years of rampant terrorism, Livnot served as a clearing house for overseas volunteers, sending people to the bed-side of the victims, raising funds for special needs, helping to adjust homes to handicapped needs, and offering home repairs to their families.

To this day, 130 families recovering from some of the worst attacks of those years keep Livnot’s phone number on hand, and rely on Livnot volunteers to assist them with tasks that they are unable to undertake.

2006 – When the Second Lebanon War erupted, the Livnot campus in Tzfat became the headquarters of the HomeFront Command of the army, directing civilian activities in Tzfat. Livnot’s staff and volunteers fanned out throughout the city, bringing food and medications to elderly and disabled residents, helping them cope, make basic repairs in bomb shelters so that they would be of use to residents who could not leave the area.

2007 and onward – Livnot’s staff, participants and volunteers renovated over 200 shelters in Tzfat, Hatzor and Kiryat Shmoneh, many as dual-purpose shelters so that they could be used during times of peace, though be ready for any possible future conflict.
