For the first time, the Agamon Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of KKL-JNF received a tawny owl chick that was only a few days old. In the midst of the nesting season, dozens of chicks, among them several species of birds of prey, have received treatment in the Center before being returned to the wild.

As part of the national reconstruction efforts after the Swords of Iron War: KKL-JNF will establish youth villages (Gar'inim) of graduates of the pre-military preparatory programs in the Negev and Galilee, which will include subsidized housing for youth for the purpose of strengthening the local communities.

Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael–Jewish National Fund (KKL-JNF) inaugurated a new KKL-JNF House for Excellence this week in Migdal HaEmek, marking a significant step in its efforts to reduce social disparities and empower youth in Israel’s geographic and social periphery. Through informal education and equal-opportunity initiatives, KKL-JNF continues to invest in closing gaps and nurturing the next generation.
