Welcome to Children's Town

CHILDREN’S TOWN in the Holy City of Jerusalem, was founded in the early 1970’s by  the late Rabbi Menachem Porush, of blessed memory. This was  a continuation  of our CHILDREN’S DAY NURSERIES  which he  had founded in the  late 1950's. 

Rabbi Porush, who was well known for his charitable activities, was a  member of the Israeli Knesset for over 35 years. Part of that time he also served as Deputy Minister of Labor and Social Welfare, and was therefore well aware of the need for Children’s Town.

Children's Day Nurseries and Childrens 's Town today continue under the leadership of his grandson  Rabbi Dovid Porush who is the Chairman of the Board.

Our Children's Day Nurseries today continue to offer day care to young children, boys and girls. 

CHILDREN’S TOWN - which takes care of tragedy-stricken children, as well as children from broken homes - was established as a result of the wars in Israel, which left many children homeless. In order to save these children from parental and spiritual neglect, CHILDREN’S TOWN provides them with a warm, secure home.

With the help of our dedicated professional staff of teachers, social workers and psychologists we give the children an opportunity to develop to their full potential and to grow into mature adults of whom we can all be proud.

CHILDREN’S TOWN is recognized in Israel and has been honored with visits from former and current  Presidents, Prime Ministers, Chief Rabbis distinguished personalities, and is renowned and supported by friends throughout the five continents of the world.                                 

Today, CHILDREN’S DAY NURSERIES and CHILDREN’S TOWN educates over 3.100 children throughout  our Day Nurseries, girls school and  aprox 100 children whom  live in our FAMILY UNITS .
