No young child should have to face the world on their own.
Lev Lalev provides critical support to orphaned, neglected, and abandoned children throughout Israel.

Healing hearts. Building futures.
For children who have suffered loss, neglect, abuse, or abandonment by the people who are supposed to care for them the most, the world is a scary and lonely place.
That is, until Lev LaLev steps in.
Lev LaLev has been providing care and support to disadvantaged children across Israel since 1962, treating them as if they were our very own. We offer more than just food, clothing, and shelter—the children in our care are welcomed into a loving family that protects, empowers, and nurtures them.

There is one common thread among the hundreds of children who we’ve cared for: Lev LaLev has given them love and support when they needed it the most.
Support
Our Girls
Sponsor a day’s expenses in the merit of a loved one, give a child the bar/bat mitzvah of their dreams, or help a young bride or groom prepare for her wedding.
“Everyone was so warm. They just gave and gave with their whole neshama, their whole soul. For the
first time, I felt like I had a family. They taught me that I can have a good life that it’s up to me to
make that happen. I feel confident I’ll be able to create the warm, loving home I’ve always dreamed
of, because Lev LaLev has helped me heal and has taught me what love and giving is all about.”

“When I first walked into the orphanage, I thought I was in the wrong place because the kids were so
lively… The facility is amazing and they are giving these girls everything you could hope for, and
always trying to improve.”

We can’t erase their trauma, but we can help them rewrite their story.

Some children come to us as young as 7 years old—hearts broken, self-worth shattered, fear in their eyes. Some are unable to smile or speak. But with intensive therapy, emotional support, and a whole lot of heart, we help them grow into the strong, joyful, confident young adults they were meant to be.
Every hour of every day, we’re there for them.

When you give them back their childhood, you hand them their future.
Without positive role models, our orphans face the risk of repeating unhealthy dynamics with which many grew up. With the right tools, we can change their narrative and impact future generations.
We’ve seen it happen. Our 900+ alumnae now lead happy, fulfilling lives. They pursue higher education, successful careers, and loving families. This transformation is made possible by generous donors like you.
