Welcome to Emunah of America (EOA)

Emunah of America provides donors, advocates, and volunteers the organization they require to care for the most vulnerable at-risk children and families in Israel. From birth through golden age, we use the power of Emunah (faith) and Jewish social values to support services that save and empower children, women, and families. Emunah Israel operates over 160 unique projects – residential homes, trauma counseling centers and early childhood education centers – serving over 10,000 individuals every day. The primary goal of Emunah is to break the cycle of distress in Israel.

Emunah Stories from Israel

"The Handyman"

The “Handyman” trains 8th and 9th graders in valuable life and vocational skills under professional social workers and the leadership of Segev, an Emunah graduate and carpenter. The children learn to paint, plaster, and repair walls, build furniture out of wood, basic plumbing, and lock repairs.
They children build professional skills under the guise of therapy- following directions, the pleasure and responsibility of independent work and the gratifying feeling of repairing things in the home.
Furthermore, this also increases their awareness and pride in their home, leading them to feel proud to look after their environment and prevent any damage.

Chofit- Good That Grows

Chofit is the happy mother of her fifth child, a beautiful baby boy, who had his Brit Milah this year. Chofit, the daughter of a drug addict, lived in a violent and chaotic home in Givat Olga, before being placed at Emunah Neve Michael Children’s Village in Pardes Hanna where she lived for almost a decade.
Chofit also studied at the Emunah Elisheva High School and after graduating did her national service at the Emunah Children’s Center in Afula. Today, a university graduate, Chofit and her husband Zion, are the dedicated parents of a mishpachton, a family unit, at Neve Michael, living with their own 5 children and 12 additional residential boys.

He is an Emunah success story and someone who shows you that you can truly beat the odds!
