Over 650 Olim have moved to Israel’s North through the Nefesh B’Nefesh Go North program, which began in 2009 in partnership with the Ministry of Immigrant Absorption, Russell Berrie Foundation, the Jewish Agency and the Jewish National Fund.
Go North aims to reinvigorate Israel’s north by creating a seamless professional and social integration through employment assistance, transportation subsidies, financial grants and creating suitable social infrastructures.
