Betty Dubiner (Hebrew: בטי דובינר, 3 June 1912 – 15 February 2008) was a Canadian-born Israeli, who was instrumental in obtaining vaccines for the new nation of Israel to combat a polio epidemic and the development of programs to assist disabled people.

At the school, they learned of transit tent-camps and when a winter storm upended the temporary shelters, the Dubiners drove to the camps and transported refugees to safer housing.

[8][10] As head of the organization, Dubiner initiated an annual March of Dimes campaign in 1958 to raise funds for Ilenshil-Polio, which was later renamed Israeli Association for Children with Disabilities (ILAN).

[10] Hosting summer camps and sporting events for paralyzed children, Dubiner and Gershon Huberman conceived of a plan to build a permanent facility.

That same year, the Montreal-based Canadian branch of ILAN established a home for disabled young adults in Jerusalem and were raising funds to build a kindergarten near Haifa.

[8] In March 2008 a memorial was held for Dubiner with dignitaries, ILAN staff, and volunteers, to honor her contributions to the development of programs for disabled citizens in Israel.
