Simcha Layeled is a non-profit organization, established in 2004, dedicated to improving the quality of life for disabled and seriously ill children, as well as for their families in hospitals, rehabilitation centers and homes. Children with serious illnesses often undergo treatment requiring long, debilitating stays in the hospital. Even when the child returns home, he or she may need assistance. Parents can become overwhelmed by the constant care they must give their child, especially with other children at home. The staff and volunteers of Simcha Layeled go to the hospitals to play with the children, read to them, feed them and help them with their school work. They also visit the homes in order to help the children, prepare meals and assist in therapy treatments.
MTM designed Simcha Layeled's website, which features informational pages as well as a dynamic photo gallery and content management system. The site is almost exclusively in Hebrew.
