Our Friends


Circle of Friends

A wide circle of friends and volunteers willingly donate their
time, energy and warmth to the Kamah non profit organization.

Kibbutz Families

For example, kibbutz members serve as adoptive families for each one of our 60 children. These families provide the children with a personalized family experience throughout their stay in the Tuvia community. The children spend at least one day weekly with their adoptive family and professional consultants from the education staff of the Tuvia Community assist the families when necessary.




High School Graduates

Each year 20 high school graduates from neighboring areas postpone their military service, live on Kibbutz Harduf for one year and volunteer at the Tuvia and Beit Elisha communities.

Council of Friends
