Kibbutz communities in Israel were founded on the true principles of an utopian socialistic society in the 1960’s. Kibbutz community members work together and they share the cost of living equally yet profits made by the kibbutz are distributed among the members the same way. Hundreds of thousands international volunteers took part in the program in the past decades working  in the field of agriculture or tourism mainly.

About the volunteer program

Vvolunteers are accepted for periods of two to twelve months, aged between 18 and 35, in good health and with a good knowledge of English. You will be expected to work in a variety of workplaces, from farms and orchards to factories tourist facilities.

The working hours vary depending on the type of work you are assigned but you would generally be expected to work 8 ½ hours a day, 5 to 6 days a week. In return you will receive full accommodation, three meals a day, Laundry, a club for volunteers as well as access to all the facilities and cultural activities of the kibbutz. You will also receive monthly pocket money, 2 days holiday per month (excluding Saturdays) and trips to visit other areas of the country.

The health insurance which the volunteer is required  to purchase by us  is especially designed for the volunteer program, covering all kinds of emergencies, need for medicine, hospitalization, ambulatory services, emergency room, etc.

In some of the Kibbutzim the volunteers will be asked to leave a deposit in the kibbutz (about 100$) as security against the kibbutz’s belongings that the volunteers use during their stay and against situations in which the volunteer does not inform the volunteer coordinator, at least two weeks in advance, regarding the date of departure from the Kibbutz.
