Zichron Menachem is an organization supporting children with cancer and their families across Israel, helping young patients and their siblings experience moments of joy and connection during a difficult journey. Since 1990, it has provided camps and retreats where children can take part in activities while continuing their regular treatment, accompanied by a medical team. Volunteers also visit children in hospitals and at home, offering companionship and encouragement.

At its House of Dreams Day Center, children who cannot attend school can relax, play, and catch up on studies. The center also welcomes parents and healthy siblings for activities, skills programs, and support. Zichron Menachem provides psychological care and professionally led support groups for patients, relatives, and volunteers. Its Clinic of Hope connects parents with oncologists for consultations and second opinions. Other services include a mobile medical clinic, free custom-made wigs, wig-care guidance, and a database of volunteer blood and platelet donors, supported by a blood bank at Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem.
