Problem: The rise in antisemitism has created a deep sense of fear, anxiety, and isolation among Jewish individuals worldwide. Existing solutions, such as therapy and institutional responses, are too slow to address the immediate emotional distress people face. This leaves many feeling unsupported in critical moments, emphasizing the urgent need for a real-time, community-driven solution to restore a sense of security and pride in Jewish identity.

Solution: SOTS is a revolutionary initiative offering immediate emotional and practical support to individuals in distress. Inspired by Israel's mental health challenges during wartime and the growing difficulties of Jewish identity in the diaspora, SOTS combines cutting-edge technology with community action to create a powerful lifeline. Users can connect with trained volunteers for immediate, empathetic assistance. Combining AI-driven personalization with community bonding, SOTS offers timely support to help individuals reclaim their sense of security and pride in their Jewish identity. See their pitch here.
