How does it work?
Didn’t Clean Up? You’ve Littered! Ahead of International Earth Day, KKL-JNF is inviting the public to take part in protecting the environment by cleaning up Israel’s forests and parks.
Everyone is invited! Do your part in caring for the environment by clearing a path or recreation area in a KKL-JNF forest of garbage that other left behind. This waste causes damage to these natural spaces and the wildlife there.
While you are doing this why not join us in a navigation game by downloading '
HavaYaar' a surprisingly fun and adventurous mobile escape game that also provides an enriching lesson on the importance of keeping the forests clean. The game is open to the public all days of the week.
The activity is for individuals or volunteer groups from specific organizations or schools.
