Many love Israel from afar — but few realize who keeps its biblical traditions alive. Across the land, it’s small family artisans who preserve faith, culture, and the everyday life that makes Israel Israel.

Israel’s living heritage is carried by small family artisans who keep biblical crafts and traditions alive.
But behind their beautiful work lies a daily reality few ever notice — long hours, remote locations, and very little help.

Much of their story stays hidden from view.

Did you know?

But there’s a side of the story few ever see...…

For many families in Israel’s quiet hills, life means pushing through hardship.

Laure Abelman’s family returned to Gush Etzion to build a future despite constant threats, where even simple joys are often interrupted by sirens.

Still, families like Laure’s keep Israel’s spirit alive through their daily work and resilience—proof that hope endures when many stand with them.

“At first, when I saw the shelters, I felt safer because it’s an open and vulnerable space. But then it struck me that the shelters kept reminding me of the situation. That’s the kind of crazy reality we live in. If you looked around, it was a regular beach day. But there was bombing in the background. Sometimes the ground would even tremble.”

Israel remains one of the most vulnerable countries in the world, with families facing adversity even in times of calm. By standing with these pioneers, you help preserve both daily life and ancient legacy.

Life in Israel’s remote towns and villages isn’t simple.
Many families and artisans live far from big cities, doing everything by hand, caring for their land, and keeping old traditions alive — often without support, resources, or nearby markets.

For generations, small businesses welcomed visitors and relied on steady local foot traffic. Today, with tourism shifting and costs rising, many families face growing uncertainty:
How will they pay rent, keep the lights on, or preserve what their parents and grandparents built?

“ Some seasons we sell well, others we barely get by. One week we make jam, the next week we worry if anyone will come. Still, we keep going — hoping someone remembers us.”

- Jo Zander, founder of Holy Cacao

For pioneers and artisans in Judea, Samaria, and the Galilee, there are extra dangers:

When hardships go unseen, endurance becomes nearly impossible.
The courage of these families should never be taken for granted — or ignored.
Your attention — and your action — can help carry them through.

Many feel a tug for Israel — in their prayers, in their hearts. But what happens when the land — and the faithful families living on it — need more than thoughts or goodwill?

It’s not about heroics.
Sometimes, the smallest act carries the greatest impact. The Bible is full of examples: a cup of water, a hand lifted, an act of kindness remembered for ages.

You don’t need to change the world alone.
Even a small, sincere choice can brighten lives and restore hope to Israeli families.

In moments of crisis, it’s easy for ordinary people to feel powerless. But your decision can have extraordinary impact—right now.

For Israeli pioneers struggling through war and isolation, even a small gesture from abroad sends a powerful message: You are not alone. We see you. We stand with you.
