Our Story

50 years of giving pack, spreading light and unconditional love

Migdal Ohr was founded in 1972 in the city of Migdal HaEmek by Israel Prize Recipient, Rabbi Yitzchak David Grossman, in order to provide the city’s children, who did not grow up in a warm and loving home, with a supportive and loving educational framework to ensure their futures.  Rabbi Grossman and his wife, Rebbetzin Esther opened their home to 18 children and raised them as their own.  The city’s great hardships led to more and more children at-risk and the Rabbi and Rebbetzin decided to establish an educational institution for them, where they could be educated and grow up happily.

The small class grew into an expansive campus, which currently offers various and diverse educational frameworks for thousands of children, every day, from infancy to adulthood.

For more than 50 years, Migdal Ohr Organization has operated, raising exemplary young men and women who fill positions in all of the life circles of the State of Israel.
