For over 30 years, twice a year the “First Home in the Homeland” program has welcomed new immigrants from around the world to kibbutzim in Israel and helped them with a smooth adaptation to life in the country. This is not just assistance — it’s a true gift for the first six months in Israel, when along with subsidized housing and intensive Hebrew courses (Ulpan), you gain your first friends in Israel, teachers, volunteers, and coordinators who become like second moms and dads. You gain a sense of security and feel that you were truly expected and truly needed!

We welcome everyone who wants to become part of our big “First Home in the Homeland” family and start their journey from a kibbutz.
