Lev Danielle (Danielle’s Heart) — Halachic Supervisory System of Bonei Olam

Bonei Olam is renowned as one of the world’s leading organizations escorting childless couples on their road to parenthood. The organization provides millions of dollars annually in financial assistance to cover the prohibitive costs of fertility treatments and medical procedures. Numerous Halachic questions and issues arise frequently throughout the complex treatment process; and in order to grant couples maximal confidence and peace of mind, Bonei Olam has crafted the Lev Danielle Hashgachah (Supervisory) System.

Lev Danielle’s faculty works in close cooperation with fertility institutes and laboratories across Israel and escorts couples throughout the difficult process to ensure that the fertility process is authentic and adheres to all Halachic regulations. They also work to foster positive communication and build trust between patients and lab workers, an effort that has earned tremendous positive feedback and appreciation both from Bonei Olam and fertility institute directors and faculties.

Above all, Lev Danielle stands as a symbol of devotion, integrity and encouragement—all identifying character traits of Danielle Sonnenfeld, a”h, who in the course of her short life  brought immeasurable joy, encouragement, and strength to countless young patients in their most painful hours.

The Lev Danielle Supervisory System was launched in a special dedication ceremony in Jerusalem’s Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital. In attendance were Israel’s Health Minister, Justice Minister, acclaimed personalities in the medical field including Rabbi Elimelech Firrer, and the newly-appointed General Manager of the hospital, Professor Zev Rothstein. Similar launching events were held in Assuta and Tel Hashomer Hospitals. During the course of the ceremonies, the speakers all praised the wonderful cooperation that exists among Lev Danielle, Bonei Olam, and fertility institutes throughout the country.
