Migdal Ohr

In 1972, the recipient of the Israel Prize, Rabbi Yitzhak David Grossman, began to work for the children of the city of Migdal Ha'Emek and established for 18 children from disadvantaged families, an educational framework that would pave the way for them to a better future. With dedication and many years of work, this activity has grown into a large and magnificent educational facility where thousands of children, boys and girls, are educated. In the Kiryat Migdal Ohr, there are many educational institutions intended for children and youth at risk, from infancy to adulthood, including day care centers for preschoolers, kindergartens, elementary schools, middle and elementary schools, studios and midrashes, boarding schools, and professional and academic schools. These institutions are equipped with the best study aids that include modern equipment, sophisticated laboratories, computers and more. The children of "Migdal Ohr" benefit from guidance, imparting tools for life and uncompromising support in every aspect of life and at any given time. The children receive an answer to every need that includes nutrition, accommodation, medical treatments, clothing and individual welfare services. In "Migdal Ohr" the children receive personal care and value education which for them is a solid foundation for a new way of creating, working and contributing to society and the country. The children of the institutions take the matriculation exams, serve in the IDF, continue their academic studies and build their moral, spiritual and professional future. Tens of thousands of "Migdal Ohr" graduates built a home in Israel, raised glorious families, served a loyal country and integrated into major professions and positions in all areas of life including: command positions in the IDF, management and education, medicine and industry. Their optimal integration into society is conclusive proof that every child has potential and with the help of faith and the right guidance he will be able to realize it.
