The last weeks have seen a dramatic rise in attempts to burn down our organic farms by arsonists. The remote areas here are where most of the incidents have taken place. In order to protect our homesteads and sheep barns we have purchased four movable sophisticated fire extinguishers. Special thanks to Judy Grossman and those that were involved in assisting in this project. Anyone who feels that they want to also help us attain more- please earmark your donation for FIRE SAFETY. We are desperately also in the need of putting in more security cameras in this area. All contributions will save lives. width=  width=

In just a few weeks the Itamar Youth Summer program will begin we really need your help in getting this project off the ground.

Every year friends of Itamar sponsors a summer camp program for the Itamar children and teens.

This year we have close to 700 children  width=that are looking forward in having a meaningful summer vacation. We are asking for your assistance in this very important project. Anyone interested can sponsor a child for 125 dollars or help out in any way possible. One must always remember that a small donation of any amount can make a huge impact in allowing the children of Itamar to enjoy their summer recess- like they deserve to. The security situation is very tense these days and it is vital that we help relieve the stress and tension through fun and recreation. We are asking our friends to kindly spread the word and share this message with friends. For those interested please see this link. May G-D bless you a thousand-fold for your kind help.
