Two hundred girls who lost everything.
They found a home.
Nivcheret is our youngest residential program - opened in 2020 for orphaned girls, age 5 and up. The youngest of the homes, with the smallest beds and the most paper cranes hanging from the ceilings. Two hundred children live here today.

— Who We Serve
Children who lost a parent - and sometimes both.
Nivcheret was built for the youngest grief. Girls arrive at five, six, seven years old, often from the home of a relative who can no longer manage. Some have lost a mother. Some, both parents. All of them need to be held by a place that knows their names and the names of the people they're mourning.
— What We Provide
Everything a family provides - and then some.
A Real Room
Private or shared rooms, ensuite, made by the girls themselves. Their space.
Three Meals & a Snack Corner
Home-cooked food. 24/7 fruit, coffee, dessert. No locked pantries.
School + Tutoring
Many arrive years behind. We close the gap. 96% graduate seminary.
A Mentor for Each Girl
One adult who knows her, advocates for her, calls her on her birthday.
Medical & Therapy
Doctors, dentists, trauma-informed psychologists. On-staff.
Life Beyond 18
Career training, Shidduchim guidance, wedding support. We stay.
