  • ​Contributing to Resilience in Israel's South

    Since the events of October 7th, 2023, Israeli society has demonstrated remarkable resilience, particularly in Ofakim—one of Southern Israel’s hardest-hit communities.

    Locals have banded together to ensure that those in need receive food, clothing, and essential services. Social initiatives and organizations have adapted their work to offer specialized support, and partnerships between diverse population groups have grown stronger.

    There remains a significant need, especially among the young, the elderly, and those with special needs who are longing for a sense of normalcy in their lives.

    This is where you come in.

    As part of the Yahel Impact program, you’ll immerse yourself in the local community through various activities:

    Four days a week, you’ll contribute to local initiatives in Ofakim and the surrounding areas in Israel’s south, collaborating with the local welfare system, youth centers, NGOs, non-profits, social enterprises, and government institutions.

    On an additional day each week, you’ll have the opportunity to explore other parts of Israel and participate in group volunteer projects across the country.

    In this critical time for Israeli civil society, join us for a 4-week immersive volunteer experience that offers genuine insight into Israel off-the-beaten path.
