💖 Optional Donation for Kibbutz Holit:
You are also warmly invited to make an optional donation to support the rebuilding of Kibbutz Holit. Even a small contribution can make a difference in creating gardens, playgrounds, and community spaces where survivors can heal and rebuild.

On October 7, Kibbutz Holit was devastated, losing beloved members of its community, including Canadian-born mother Adi Vital-Kaploun. Survivors were forced to disperse, and now they are determined to return home in 2026.

Friends of JNF Canada is committed to building a central landscape with gardens, shaded playgrounds, and outdoor fitness areas- spaces where children, parents, and seniors can heal, reconnect, and rebuild community. Your support can restore the Heart of Holit and turn resilience into renewal. Donations are 100% tax receiptable.
