Welcome To Amigour
During these trying times, Amigour's cherished elderly residents find themselves seeking refuge in bomb shelters, their ears attuned to the piercing sirens, and their hearts burdened by the unsettling uncertainty that hovers over them.
Amigour's dedicated staff is tirelessly working to ensure the safety and well-being of each and every elderly resident under our care.
Amigour extends its deepest condolences to the grieving families who have tragically lost their beloved ones, and we fervently wish for a swift recovery for those who have been injured.
Our thoughts and prayers are with those who are enduring the anguish of loved ones being held hostage in Gaza, and we earnestly pray for their safe and swift return, along with the safe return of Israel's brave soldiers.
There are 1,080,000 Israelis over the age of 65, 200,000 of whom live close to the poverty line and cannot afford to purchase or even rent sustainable lodgings. Amigour operates fifty-five housing projects nationwide to provide basic living needs for approximately 7000 disadvantaged elderly. A large majority of these are new immigrants from the Former Soviet Union and Holocaust survivors. Without support, these men and women would face devastation and ruin.
The Jewish Agency Senior Social Housing Initiative is a well-planned program to address the housing crisis for senior citizens in Israel, carried out with the support of the Government of Israel.
2650 new residential units will be constructed on 17 sites in 9 cities across Israel. These units will be small apartments, and will provide high-quality living space for senior adults.
New development on under-utilized land and the addition of floors on existing complexes will allow The Jewish Agency and its partners to act quickly to build more affordable homes.
