The IVOW Program
-
Three weeks attending one of our five Jewish community summer camps.
-
One week visiting with the Montreal and Toronto communities.
-
Providing the IVOW teenagers with the unique opportunity to build relationships both within their own group, with the Canadians they meet at camp.
-
IVOW is a completely volunteer program; no one is paid including the staff from Israel who accompany the teenagers for their month in Canada.
IVOW's Response to October 7th
October 7th created thousands of new IVOW families. Thanks to the generosity of IVOW's partner camps and our community, IVOW has been able to double in size and offer our program to more than 200 teenagers.
Amongst the teenagers who have participated since October 7th include teenagers from Kibbutzes such as Kfar Aza, Be'eri, Nir Oz, Nahal Oz, Re'im and Nirim; along with teenagers from hostage families, Nova festival families, families who have lost children or parents serving in Gaza and Lebanon, and families from the Northern border. IVOW will continue to serve as many of these families as possible.
