Bomb Shelter Beautification Project:

For two decades, residents of the Israel Envelope (formerly known as the Gaza Envelope) have endured continual attacks from the bordering Gaza Strip – rockets, incendiary balloons, and more. When an alert sounds, residents have just 15 seconds or less to run for shelter from the incoming attack. Since October 7, 2023, the need for bomb shelters has become even more dire—not just in the Israel Envelope, but across the entire country. Rocket attacks from Gaza and Lebanon have become routine, and no one feels safe being far from shelter.

In order to rebuild lives and regular routines, it is essential that bomb shelters are built near schools and homes across large swaths of Israel’s North and South. Evacuated residents cannot return home until enough bomb shelters are built nearby, and even those who have been able to safely remain in their homes now feel the need for added security.

Jewish National Fund-USA is committed to ensuring that bomb shelters are built in the border communities along Gaza as well as in the North, as a first step to making it safe for residents to return to these areas.

Beautify a cement bomb shelter to ease PTSD in both children and adults. A local artist paints murals on shelters making them less threatening while easing stress and fear in times of emergency. The funds employ a local artist and provide maintenance and repairs to current shelters.
