ABOUT BIKUR CHOLIM
When illness strikes, getting the best care possible is everything - who you call makes all the difference. At Bikur Cholim, we know that when someone battling illness can’t afford their treatment, surgery, or even a simple prescription, the outcome can be devastating. For over 35 years we have been helping thousands of individuals of all ages get the care they desperately need regardless of their ability to pay.
Under the leadership of Rabbi Hershy Z. Ten, our devoted staff and volunteers provide comprehensive support through a myriad of programs and services. In our role as the leading Jewish healthcare organization on the West Coast, we open doors to world-renowned physicians and medical centers, accessing the best medical care available today. Whether it’s with the cost of treatment, or “just helping you through it,” every person who turns to Bikur Cholim is served with an unwavering dedication and commitment to making their lives better.

"We can't thank Bikur Cholim
enough
You paid for our child’s surgery when we couldn’t afford it, and treated us with such respect and sensitivity throughout the entire process.
May Hashem bentch you and all who support you!”
