Celebrating Tu BiShvat with Retirees from Zinman Community Center in Beit Shemesh!

As part of the ongoing community partnership between Israel Elwyn's Tzomet Center in Beit Shemesh and the Zinman Community Center in Beit Shemesh, our service recipients had the opportunity to meet the center’s retirees. From this meeting, a wonderful idea was born—inviting them to join us for a shared activity! 🎉

This week, in honor of Tu BiShvat, we hosted the retirees for a day filled with creativity and connection. Together, we made beautifully designed flower-shaped soaps and festive baskets—a celebration of shared experiences and meaningful bonds. 💕

At first, some of the retirees were hesitant and unsure about the meeting, but before long, hearts opened, conversations blossomed, and the experience became an unforgettable and moving event for all of us. 🌟

Because a true community bridges generations, fosters partnerships, and ensures that everyone has an equal place. 🙌💙 ... See MoreSee Less

A Heartwarming Tu BiShvat Celebration in Our Supported Living Services! 🌿🌸

The residents of our Supported Living Services celebrated Tu BiShvat, the New Year for Trees, together with participants from the Bnei Akiva Central Jerusalem branch, engaging in a special creative activity—decorating flower pots and planting seedlings in the spirit of the holiday.

The atmosphere was warm and joyful, and the intergenerational gathering between the younger and older participants created meaningful connections that truly touched the heart.

A huge thank you to Itamar Sagie – Garden Design for generously donating flowers and planters, adding beauty and color to our activity! These new planters will continue to brighten up personal rooms and our garden for a long time to come. ... See MoreSee Less

We are thrilled to accompany the young adults from the Mimush Center in Herzliya on a powerful and experience-filled journey!

🏄 6 surfing sessions at Lev Yam Club (Sea Center Club) – an empowering sports experience.

💙 A total of 11 young adults participated in the project, embarking on a meaningful personal journey of growth.

🎉 Today, a moving closing ceremony was held at the Final Company, with the participation of company employees, service recipients and their families, the Beit Al HaYam team, Mimush Center, and Israel Elwyn.

🏆The Final Company not only contributed to the initiative but also engaged its employees, who volunteered and actively joined the activities alongside the young participants – a touching connection that highlights the power of a supportive community!

🙏 A huge thank you to Beit Al HaYam for their dedicated and professional partnership.
👏 Special thanks to the incredible team at Mimush Center, who do outstanding, creative, and meaningful work with the young adults in the program!
