“Thank you so much to everyone at Ohel Sarah for the amazing work that you do. It was an honor to see firsthand the projects and to meet your wonderful clients, children, adults and parents, and the very many people who give their time to make Ohel Sarah the wonderful place that it is. Kol Hakavod!”
Mrs. Celia Gould, spouse of former British Ambassador to Israel.
“Seeing young men working in nature is beautiful and inspiring! In this day and age, where technology suppresses man’s ability to really connect to his surroundings, I am impressed by Ohel Sarah’s encouragement of its students to appreciate and live nature.”
Mr. Chaim Messing, Chairman of the Jewish National Fund, Central Israel, during his visit to Ohel Sarah’s Therapy Greenhouse.
“It is wonderful to see these women working and being involved in meaningful employment. I am a staunch believer that people with special needs deserve to feel like contributing individuals in the community. Ohel Sarah serves as an advocate for adults with disabilities and advances their right to take an active part in society”
Mr. Eli Dadon, Chairman of the Israel National Lottery.
“I have been deeply impressed by the devotion, high professional standards, care and warmth and individual attention that each student at the organization receives…and by its constant aspiration towards advancement and improvement – all carried out with the purpose of providing the best possible care to the students.”

Chani is only 7 years old. She has autism and is non-verbal. In her short life, she has suffered abuse and neglect at home, and was found wandering the streets by herself. She came to Ohel Sarah just a few months ago, and we immediately set up a new home for her and 3 other young girls in a similar, desperate situation. Chani was unkempt, desperate for love but unable to control her anger. She would frequently break things in the apartment. Our wonderful housemother Rachel has found ways to calm her down, has given her the love and care she craves. For the first time in her life, she has started communicating
by using an iPad. She is able to ‘say’ what she wants and we are listening and helping her.
Every child needs love and security to develop and thrive.
We have given Chani these things and more.
We have given her a home for life.
We have given her love.
We have given her a future.
