The purpose of this fund is to provide immediate relief as well as long-term empowerment to disadvantaged children in both Israel and the West Bank. It is our desire to provide such children with experiences and opportunities they might otherwise never enjoy.

To this extent, the Children’s Fund operates in a variety of ways: providing children from broken homes with the opportunity to engage in extra-curricular activities (such as dance classes, swimming lessons, summer camps, etc.); giving holiday gifts to Jewish and Arab children living in orphanages or from disadvantaged families; organizing field trips such as excursions to the Sea of Galilee, the Mediterranean beaches and Jerusalem’s Biblical Zoo. In many cases we provide funds for medical treatments (including surgery) not covered by the respective healthcare systems; and funds for general educational needs (such as books & supplies, transportation, clothes, etc.). Ten percent of every donation towards a JCF project or fund is allocated towards administrative costs and staff expenses.
