Residents of our Sup

Residents of our Supported Living Program, together with the volunteers of the Ruach Nachon Gap Year Leadership Program, headed out yesterday for a trip to Aminadav Forest. How special it was to reconnect with our dedicated volunteers, this time under the open sky, with the scent of pine trees in the air and smiles that wouldn’t fade.

Pita bread was baked on the taboon (brick oven), coffee was brewed outdoors, and together we all enjoyed an accessible and enriching guided tour led by the Lotem Organization.

It was a day of true togetherness, shared joy, and a strong sense of capability.
A day that proves that when a community comes together with open hearts, great things happen.

Thank you to the volunteers of the Ruach Nachon Gap Year Leadership Program for your ongoing partnership and commitment, and thank you to everyone who took part and made this day such a celebration! 💙

Israel Elwyn’s Sup

Israel Elwyn’s Supported Living Program bids a heartfelt and appreciative farewell to two dear volunteers from abroad, Noah and Hannah 💙

Noah joined us from South Korea through the organization Over Flowing Jerusalem and volunteered with us for two years, primarily at the “Merchavim” Adult Day Center. During this time, he became an integral part of the residents’ and staff’s daily lives. Noah worked with dedication, sensitivity, and dedication, built meaningful relationships and contributed to positive changes in their daily routines.

Hannah came to us from South Korea through the organization Amiko, after completing a year of volunteering with another nonprofit. She chose to dedicate an additional year to volunteering with us, mainly at the Adult Day Center. Hannah built personal and meaningful connections with the residents, developed individualized plans, and played a significant role in their progress and self-empowerment 🌸

Noah and Hannah brought with them energy, compassion, and a genuine desire to help. They truly saw each and every resident, gave personal attention, and were always there with open hearts, initiative, and dedication.

We thank them from the bottom of our hearts for their meaningful contribution, commitment, and the love they shared. We are proud that they are part of the Israel Elwyn Supported Living Program family.

Our door is always open to them, and we look forward to seeing them again in the future ✨

Would you like to take part in meaningful work as well?

Making progress —

Making progress — on the train and in the profession 🐶

Karmel and the team headed out with our students from the Employment College for Dog Care at Moshav Herut for a field day at the Dog Training School of the Magid Institute at Tel Aviv University.

Independence on the train, professionalism during a hands-on session with Ofer Biton and his dog Sparta, and a great sense of pride as the students proved they are ready for any challenge 💪

We came back with confidence, smiles, and new knowledge.
An Israel Elwyn-style learning day at its very best! 💙✨

Yifat Pinto Kahana, Director of our Volunteer Division, participated in the 20th anniversary conference of Good Deeds Day.

In the photo, Yifat is pictured with Mrs. Shari Arison, founder of the Ted Arison Family Foundation, which has been leading Good Deeds Day for the past 20 years.

On this special day, thousands of volunteers across Israel take part each year in acts of kindness that strengthen Israeli society. At Israel Elwyn as well, we have been celebrating Good Deeds Day for over a decade, as part of spreading good and raising public awareness of people with disabilities.

There are moments th

There are moments that don’t need explaining.
They need to be lived.

On the occasion of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, marked this past weekend, we want to share a quiet and moving initiative taking place at the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Center in Jerusalem.

A joint volunteer project with the Foundation for the Welfare of Holocaust Survivors.

Not “just another volunteer activity,” but a genuine human encounter.

It begins with a hesitant smile,
a small conversation,
and trust that is built slowly.
One conversation at a time.

It’s moving to see our volunteers finding a sense of purpose,
and it’s moving to see the survivors rejoicing in companionship, in being listened to, in having someone who is truly there.

On a day that recalls pain,
we choose to also recall connection.
