About Moshav Netiv Haasara

Netiv Haasara is a Moshav (agricultural village) founded in 1973 in the Sinai peninsula. In 1982, following Israel’s peace treaty with Egypt and the withdrawal of the Sinai peninsula, the moshav was moved to its current location. In 2005, with the implementation of Israel’s “Disengagement Plan” and the withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, the moshav became the closest Israeli settlement to the border fence (only 100 meters).

Up until war broke out on October 7th, the moshav was home to over 300 families, who enjoyed a thriving community life, in spite of the moshav being target of rocket fire by terrorist organizations over the years.

Israeli Mutual Responsibility

The widespread commitment & solidarity shown by the citizens of Israel, and the many initiatives by thousands of volunteers, are awe inspiring and assist the evacuated residents with their various needs.

Naturally, and under these tragic circumstances, the moshav’s residents have financial needs, which require different responses for each family. Members of the moshav’s management are doing their best to assign despite the complexity of a situation were residents are forbidden from returning to their homes due to the security risk, and cannot even bury their loved ones at the moshav’s cemetery.

This ability to support each other, was built quickly by local leadership using an exceptional social cohesion, and there is no doubt this tight-knit community will overcome the crisis it is facing today. The more assistance it receives now, the faster it will recuperate.

A strong Netiv Haasara community will help strengthen the entire “Otef Israel” region.

?What will the funds be used for

  • Everything the moshav needs to supply its residents with a sense of security, such as: supplies for the local security force, security cameras, communication equipment , medical equipment , etc.
  • assistance in purchasing in bullet proof ambulance, which will serve the residents for medical emergencies.
  • A major upgrade in the moshav’s control center ability to communicate with each house on the moshav.
  • Providing residents emotional support & therapy.
  • Financial support for those in need. This does not replace funds supplied by the Israel government , but is intended to help households who have lost their loved ones in the short term.
  • Restore the community’s sources of income, and anything it takes to save to agricultural farms: equipment , supplies, workers.
  • Assistance in building a new fortified community center. This is important as a new meeting point, and a symbol of restoring the community’s sense of cooperation, now more than ever.
