Zion Orphanage has pioneered the "Mishpachtone" - where a young, energetic couple lives in an apartment with their own young children, along with twelve Zion boys, ages 7-14.

This intimate family setting – often the boys' first encounter with caring, responsible adults worthy of trust – has transformative impact on the boys' physical and emotional health.

As Zion Orphanage continues to expand, space is always at a premium. That's why our newest development project is to build an entire new floor in our main facility, with space-efficient and comfortable rooms for 21 boys.

Your partnership will enable us to best provide for the Zion boys – as your eternal legacy in the heart of Jerusalem.

With over a century of caring for disadvantaged boys in Israel, Zion Orphanage offers Planned Giving, a popular philanthropic tool for posthumously bequeathing assets or funds to a non-profit.

Planned Giving enables you to assist generations of children​ – who lack a stable, nurturing family environment​ – ​to become self-sufficient assets to the community.
