The State of Israel grants tax refunds for donations you made during the calendar year. A person who during the year contributed more than NIS 200 (as of 2023) to a charity recognized for the purpose of tax refund (which received approval according to סעיף 46), is entitled to an income tax credit for that year. For private individuals and businesses that are not limited liability companies - the amount of the credit is 35% of the total donation made. For example, a person who donated 100,000 NIS will benefit from a tax credit of 35,000 NIS for his contribution.
