A Special Event for Children with Special Needs Evacuated from Southern Israel

On November 22, KKL-JNF, in collaboration with the Shalva Assosication held an event for children with special needs that were evacuated from Southern Israel and stay in hotels in Jerusalem.

Participants enjoyed a wide variety of activities, including those held by KKL-JNF's Chance for the Youth program participants, special KKL-JNF activity kits and games, animal activities, creative workshops, drama workshops, children activities and food stalls.

Since the beginning of the war, KKL-JNF came to the aid of people with special needs, with the goal of helping the children, teenagers and their families to experience and enjoy activities that can take their minds of the harsh realities of the war. Hundreds of such activities take place since the beginning of the war.

The Shalva Center, which is also used as a national emergency center, hosts the families of evacuated children with special needs, providing them with everything they require – treatments, food, entertainment and personalized care to help them maintain their daily routine.
