TIC Fundraiser for
Kibbutz Kfar Azza's Tzofim Clubhouse
We are excited to announce the launch of our Chanukah fundraising campaign to support our sister community, Kibbutz Kfar Azza. Our goal is to raise $25,000 to help pay for a youth clubhouse for their Tzofim (scouts). The Tzofim movement is central to Israeli society; it builds community, leadership, life skills and connection to Israeli and Jewish heritage.
TIC’s Commitment to Kibbutz Kfar Azza
In May, we were honored to host four members from Kibbutz Kfar Azza for a beautiful and incredibly meaningful Shabbat. Naomi, Hannan, Ido, and Dorin shared their personal experiences of the barbaric attack on October 7th and the devastating impact it has had on their community. Their raw, first-hand accounts left an indelible mark on us. Since then, we have been working closely with the Kfar Azza Foundation to determine how best to support their community as they rebuild.
Kfar Azza Community Update
After over a year of dislocation and the continued captivity of five fellow kibbutz members, the Kibbutz Kfar Azza community has begun moving to a temporary home at nearby Kibbutz Ruhama, where they will remain while Kfar Azza is rebuilt.
Why Support the Tzofim Clubhouse?
The Tzofim clubhouse has historically been a home away from home for the youth of Kfar Azza. They feel ownership of the space and infuse it with pride and personality. Since the destruction on October 7th, the Tzofim have been using a refurbished bus as their base. They so desperately long for a real home— an actual meeting place they can personalize and call their own. TIC’s donation will help acquire a semi-permanent structure for the Tzofim of Kfar Azza.
