The Aliyah Return Center, situated in Israel's scenic Galilee region, is a beacon for Jewish immigrants embarking on the journey of "Aliyah," or homecoming to Israel. We acknowledge “Aliyah” as not just a geopolitical migration but HaShem’s mandate prophesied in the Scriptures. The center offers a comprehensive three-month internship program for International lovers of Israel, that serves as a rich learning and serving experience. Interns partake in numerous activities aimed at community uplifting and leadership development. These range from hands-on housing renovations to archaeological digs to gardening projects, and more. The interns even engage in activities like singing for the elderly, preparing food gift baskets for the needy, and cooking Shabbat dinner for our lone soldiers—those serving in the military without immediate family in Israel. Some of our Projects: Housing for New Immigrants: The center believes that providing a home isn't just about four walls and a roof; it's about giving immigrants a place to belong in their new country. Feeding the Poor: A robust food aid program ensures that hundreds of underprivileged families get nutritious meals, taking some burden off their shoulders. Tree Planting (Bloom Project): we plant trees to honor those who have helped Aliyah. Planting trees enriches Israeli community development. Lone Soldiers Housing (Upper Room): Lone soldiers have a unique set of emotional and physical needs. The center offers them specialized housing, giving them a place where they can feel a sense of family and home. Ulpan Hebrew School: Language is integral to integration. The center provides Hebrew classes that prepare new immigrants for the social and professional aspects of Israeli life. Free Clothing Hub (LiVracha): New immigrants often arrive with little. The center's free clothing store is more than just clothes; it's about restoring hope and dignity to people who are starting anew, even from war zones. Impact: The Aliyah Return Center's goals transcend immediate needs. The long-term vision is to establish relationships that create a ripple effect, instilling a sense of purpose and fulfillment among new immigrants, while at the same time training leaders who will counter antisemitism, and stand together, spreading the love. The Aliyah Return Center serves as a holistic support system to Jewish Immigrants. Whether you contribute as a donor or serve as an intern, you become part of a larger family that aligns with Israel's divine destiny, as foretold long ago. Will you you become part of this symphony?

Harvest+'s advantage is ratings volume (157 vs 4) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
