Untold News was founded by Marcella Rosen in January 2010. In 2002 she established the Campus Tolerance Foundation to research and create awareness about bias present on college campuses.
The mission of Untold News is to educate Americans about the Middle East and the non-political aspects of Israel. Helping to present “the other half of the story” could greatly enhance perceptions of Israel in the US.
The video above shows an eight-month-old Palestinian child with a hole in her heart. She receives medical treatment from the charity Save A Child's Heart Program based in Holon, Israel. This program has helped over 2500 children in over 40 countries where adequate medical care is unavailable.
You can also find other videos of help being given during times of need HERE

What a wonderful program. My son had a hole in his heart. Luckily for us, it closed up quickly after he was taken off the ventilator.
My good news? My family is getting together this summer for a mini family reunion. I'm beyond excited!
one person CAN make a difference! Once again, we can see that, through yet another awesome foundation or charity, like this one to help children with heart problems!
some good news? I just received news that I am going to be the recipient of an incredible SelectComfort bed in the coming weeks! This is an answer to much prayer from friends around the world. I have 3 complex tumors eating through my spine. 4 years ago I was given notice by drs that I had maybe a month... I am still here!( that's good news!)..but I live much of the time in bed, and I live with 24/7 acute pain... the hardships financially that arise when one has serious medical problems sometimes has disastrous affects on your daily living as well. So spending 70& of the day and night in a bed that has huge sags in it, is not condusive to healing or comfort. So you can see how this "good news" is lifechanging! I cannot wait!
