American Friends of Neve Hanna, Inc.

Oakland Gardens, New York

Cause Description:
For almost 50 years, Neve Hanna Children’s Home has provided a loving home for children from distressed and dysfunctional family circumstances in the south of Israel. They are the children of Russian, Ethiopian, Middle Eastern immigrants and native-born Israelis. Sadly, these children have been scarred by poverty, abuse, parental mental illness and drug or alcohol addiction in the home. These at-risk youth come to Neve Hanna where their physical, emotional and educational needs are addressed. Neve Hanna is not an institution. In fact, it is recognized under the Masorti Movement as a Kehilla, the only one of its kind in Israel. The children’s home provides individual therapy, remedial instruction and extensive enrichment leisure time programs. This loving, nurturing and therapeutic environment gives the children the opportunity to heal, thrive and become responsible adults. Neve Hanna offers these at-risk youth the chance to grow beyond the circumstances from which they emerged.
