Kibbutz Nahal Oz
The Kovel family moved from the center of the country to Kibbutz Nahal Oz.
For many years, the Kovels wanted to move out of the city into a rural community.

They toured the community during one of OR Movement’s initiatives we have with the Nahal Oz community and fell in love.
Meet the Alcheck Family
Kibbutz Yahel
Avraham and Natasha moved to Kibbutz Yahel in search of a secluded and quiet place to live. They were impressed by the relaxed atmosphere of the Kibbutz and that anyone could find their place there. They were particularly moved that anyone could build or develop what they wanted to from entrepreneurship to hobbies with the full support of the community.
