Upper Galilee Kibbutzim - Community Rebuild Project

Join us as we bring a small team of volunteers to the Upper Galilee in northern Israel, where local authorities are working urgently to rebuild communities devastated by the war of October 7. As residents begin returning home, our focus will be on restoring essential community spaces—clearing debris, landscaping, painting, and repairing buildings that were damaged or left abandoned during evacuation. This is hands-on, physical work aimed at helping the community recover and regain access to vital services.
