After over two years of war, Your Boys are traumatized.

Every teacher keeps saying the same thing: we are now seeing the effects of war on these boys. 

Your Boys are anxious, they jump at loud noises, some are not sleeping, others are having panic attacks. 

With the current war, these problems are only going to get worse.

 

They need YOU to help them heal

You can support a new program at BTJ designed to improve Your Boys’ emotional well-being.

This new program will focus on counseling for emotional well-being, tutoring to help each boy learn, and therapeutic outings and hikes designed to regulate their trauma response. 

I want to help a boy

To honor the memory of our fallen grads – and to enrich the lives of present & future students – please help us create a dynamic daytime recreational center for Your Boys

It’s not easy being a student at Boys Town Jerusalem. Our social workers are reporting troubling trends among students, including a sharp rise in attention deficiency and hyperactivity. The added stress of the war in addition to the poverty and strife at home so many suffer from is too much.

These boys need a Daytime Recreational Center to give them a welcome respite from trauma and studies.

The new Daytime Recreational Center, in loving memory of our fallen grads, will offer Your Boys a comfortable, spacious place to prepare homework, fix a light snack, play games, and relax and meet with friends during breaks between classes.

I want to help build!

    You can help buy the new desktops, laptops, servers, and printers Your Boys urgently need. These tools will help Your Boys today —and future students to come.

    A new computer costs $1,500, but any amount you give will go directly toward updating the computers your boys rely on every single day.

    You can give Your Boys a gift for life!

    Your support helps Boys Town Jerusalem teach students the skills and confidence they need to succeed. Today, we urgently need your help to buy new computers and updated software so “Your Boys” can keep learning and growing.

    Back in 1975, Boys Town Jerusalem became the very first high school in Israel to start a computer science program. It helped our students become leaders in Israel’s tech world.

    But today, many of the computers are old, outdated and slow. Most desktops last 5–8 years, but a number of ours are over 12 years old! Without good computers, Your Boys cannot study the advanced subjects they need for top jobs in Israel’s vital industries.

    Give a gift today!
