"Merit provides the most efficient and flexible solution for high-net-worth individuals and corporate philanthropy in Israel and the USA."
Reuben Eblagon
Head of the Committee of the Headquarters for the Hostage Families
"Merit was a critical enabler of the campaigns and activities of the hostage families' headquarters. Without the efficiency and dedication of Alon Tal, the families would not have been able to start their operations so promptly after the devastating events of October 7th."
