A Home for World Bnei Akiva
"
This is a great opportunity for all Bnei Akiva programs to have a central 'home,' a place where they can live and learn; a place where Bnei Akiva members from all over the world can interact and exchange ideas, initiate projects, and strengthen the movement.
Be'ezrat Hashem, (with God’s help,) this new building will host many Bnei Akiva members and events in the future and further reinforce our commitment and connection to the Land, the Torah, and the People of Israel.

Bnei Akiva Tafnit
Year Program.
For over 3,000 years, the Jewish home has kept the Jewish people alive: values and morals... a sanctuary of spirituality... Torah learning and observance... warmth and laughter... yearning for Jerusalem... faith against all odds...
For over 75 years, Bnei Akiva, the largest Jewish youth movement in the world, has brought living, vibrant Judaism and active Zionism to over 1 million Jewish families and their communities across the globe.
Prime Location
Now, for the first time, Bnei Akiva has an exciting opportunity to build a new World Center in the well-positioned Givat Mordechai neighborhood of Jerusalem, the holiest city in the world.
World Bnei Akiva has been sorely lacking one central site to house its many activities. For accommodation and board, training facilities, and educational support for over 2,000 members that come to Israel every year, many hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent to use other organizations’ services. No longer. Over the last few years, Bnei Akiva has enjoyed the success of a temporary building in Katamon, which provides a one-stop base for members on its Israel programs while also housing a dining room, classrooms, a resource center, a study hall, a synagogue, a room for social activities, and more. Following the success of this ‘pilot,’ we are fully confident that with your help, the new, bigger building will provide the springboard for even greater achievement.
