Graduates of the Children's Home Speak

Over the past 65 years, more than a thousand graduates of the Children's Home and the Group House have gone on to lead productive lives in the greater community.

They always remember the dedication, patience, care, and love that helped turn their nightmares into dreams and gave them the tools to rise above their painful beginnings.

"I was well on the road to juvenile delinquency. Today I know that had I not come to the Children's Home, I would have continued on to a life of crime and violence. Luckily, I got my life back."

Graduated in 1969

"As I re-visit the haunts of my childhood memories, I realize that the Home saved me. I thank God there is such a place."
Moti A., business manager

"The Home gave me the feeling that I care about myself, that I am not a nobody, and that they love me very much. Now that I am leaving, I feel strong. I'm a little scared, but I think I'll be able to handle whatever the future brings."
Ofer S., haute cuisine chef
Graduated in 1984

"Today I am both happy and sad – happy that I have successfully walked down such a long path to wellness, and sad that this is the moment of parting and leave-taking. Thank you for having helped me so much!"
