Building a Sense Of Belonging!
KeepOlim stands up for ALL Olim, promotes their voices, and fights for them in the Knesset!
In July 2017, we successfully advocated for a change in law to enable all Olim to get their driver’s licenses converted to Israeli ones.
Because of our advocacy campaign, now an Oleh who has been driving for five years or more and has lived in Israel for less than three years may simply convert their driver’s license at the Driving License Bureau.
As Israelis take stock of damage, KeepOlim volunteers rush to offer assistance.
Hundreds of aid kits including clothing, blankets, and cooking utensils were delivered to the residents of Haifa by a group of new immigrants in Israel. As Israelis were devastated by the damage caused by fires which spread from the Dead Sea to Nahariya, forcing 80,000 people to leave their homes, volunteers with KeepOlim helped residents find the strength to recover from this unforeseen disaster.
