We have so many exciting news to share about our new outreach vans partnerships.
ELEM Israel recently launched a new outreach van in partnership with the Ra’anana municipality. ELEM’s outreach van will help track youth wandering the streets at night and provide them with initial assistance and referrals when necessary. We are happy to see Ra’anana joining other cities in which ELEM operates outreach vans successfully.
Another partnership is with Bank Leumi, ELEM Israel’s long time partner. The bank will adopt ELEM’s outreach van in Lod. The outreach van has been operating in the city for many years in partnership with Lod’s municipal welfare department and with the other professional bodies in the city.
Liat Zettler, head of the organizational development and learning department at Leumi Bank said: “Our choice to sponsor ELEM’s outreach van in Lod is not accidental and it stems from the bank’s headquarters location in Lod and the goal of giving back to the community, to the residents of the city and the surrounding area.”
ELEM Israel President shared in the outreach van launch ceremony: “Thanks to the outreach vans activities, every year hundreds of teenagers manage to return to an appropriate school framework, enlist in military service, integrate into the workplace and change their life course.”
We are so witness these new partnerships as we hope to reach more youth at risk. We couldn’t do it without them!
