Meet the Tik Tok generation. This is how they were described – as glued to the screen, apathetic to their surroundings and caring only about themselves. However, in recent months, we have seen how wonderful Israel’s younger generation is, who have fought, volunteered and helped in many ways.
At the Zoharim Youth Village, we teach our pupils to demonstrate leadership and assume responsibility for their surroundings and community, understanding that they are the future generation of the State of Israel. At Zoharim, the pupils learn about the importance of giving back in order for them to develop and grow up to be citizens who contribute to society and the State of Israel.
This week, the 10th graders volunteered at the Even Shmuel Senior Daycare Center. Volunteering and working on behalf of the community are routine at the youth village, whose goal is to encourage the youth at risk to change their life trajectory for the good.
Zoharim Youth Village was established by Israel Prize Recipient, Rabbi Yitzchak David Grossman, giving these teens another, often last, chance to integrate into Israeli society as exemplary citizens.
