Fast Fact
Voluntarism is an important part of Israeli culture. One way that Israelis help is through Yedidim (Friends), which offers non-medical emergency roadside assistance nationwide. Any one of more than 65,000 volunteers will answer the call 24/6 to change a flat tire, jump-start a car, unlock a vehicle with the keys inside, and more. All services are free and available except Shabbat and holidays.
