The exhibition aims to humanize and bring joy to soldiers and their families by showcasing their personal stories and human moments during combat, according to the former television presenter.

This is her third exhibition on the subject, focusing on reservists who have made significant sacrifices.

The former television presenter emphasized the social importance of the exhibition, highlighting the unity within the military where individuals are accepted regardless of their background. The exhibition specifically focuses on rare, human moments rather than the war itself. Dr. Galit Kaufman, CEO of Assuta Hospital in Ashdod, added that the exhibition bridges the two sides of the conflict by presenting the human stories behind it, fostering a sense of optimism and trust in the people serving on the front lines and in hospitals.

The exhibition also features stories from rescue forces, and its partnership with Assuta Hospital, which treated over 1,000 war casualties, creates a complete narrative arc. The former television presenter explained that her commitment to social activism began 15 years ago, and intensified after October 7, leading her to dedicate herself fully to volunteer work. She now manages a theater and gives lectures, having left the entertainment industry 15 years ago, a decision she considers one of the best she has made. The former television presenter finds her current work helping soldiers much more fulfilling than her 20 years on screen.
