Studio 448
In response to the growing need for safe, supportive spaces for discharged and active-duty soldiers affected by war, Studio 448 was established - a unique haven where those impacted by trauma, burnout, injury, or emotional strain can simply arrive, breathe, and feel at home.
Studio 448 was not designed from theory - it was born from real voices on the ground. It offers a warm, informal environment built on creativity, self-expression, and healing - where care is delivered with sensitivity, openness, and respect.
Through music, art, dialogue, and shared space, soldiers find a place to reconnect - with themselves, with others, and with life.
In light of the recent war with Iran, a bold civilian rescue mission was launched to bring home essential IDF soldiers stranded in Cyprus -
many of whom had no safe way to return.
Led by an IDF veteran in partnership with Studio 448 at Herzliya Marina, this mission mobilized professional skippers and private maritime resources to bring the soldiers home - swiftly, safely, and free of charge.
This is not merely transportation. This is a rescue operation. Every ship that sails and every soldier returned is a testament to collective action, volunteer spirit, and public generosity - a shared commitment that truly saves lives.
