- The project will cost about $390 million and include 540 beds.

The Husidman family will donate a flagship NIS 200 million gift to build a new rehabilitation hospital in Tel Aviv’s Sde Dov area, the family foundation announced. The facility will carry the Husidman name through a naming donation and is planned as a national health project with a total investment of about $390 million, expected to become Israel’s largest rehabilitation hospital.
The project is being developed with the Tel Aviv Foundation, the Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality, and the Reuth Association, which currently runs the Reuth Rehabilitation Hospital in the Yad Eliyahu neighborhood. When construction is completed, in about six years, hospital operations are expected to move to the new campus. The complex will include about 540 inpatient beds, a trauma clinic, an expanded day-rehabilitation unit, imaging services, a hydrotherapy pool, advanced rehabilitation departments, a medical research and development incubator, and green spaces for patients and their families. A new public housing building with about 250 units is also planned nearby.
The donation comes amid a wave of major philanthropy from Jews living abroad in response to the October 7 attacks and the latest war, including a record $200 million gift to Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem from the Koom family foundation, founded by WhatsApp co-founder Jan Koum.
The Husidman family is among Mexico’s leading business families. Daniel Husidman, the family foundation’s founder, is a prominent Mexican Jewish businessman, and the family controls Grupo Truper, one of Latin America’s largest toolmakers, with operations in electronics, gardening, heavy industry, and carpentry. Yigal Husidman said rehabilitation medicine in Israel “did not receive the place it deserved” for years, adding that the war reminded everyone how essential it is for restoring “life, dignity and independence” to the injured. He said the family wants the hospital to help wounded Israelis, especially those who defended the country, and to provide world-class care, hope and a new start.
