Established in 1948 in a nature reserve, this beautiful village has welcomed and educated immigrant boys and girls from all over the world, children who were persecuted and traumatised in their home countries and needed a safe haven.

The Village, headed today by Nina Glassman, a graduate of the village, places great emphasis on the Arts – music, drama and dance, thus promoting the children’s desire for developing their individual creativity.

Exciting new projects include a new wing to an existing dormitory and a scholarship program to help the Village’s graduates move on to university.

At present Aloney Yitzhak prepares a unique mix of some 400 students for a creative future in Israel’s multicultural community.
