 Empowering Haredi Youth

Who Are We?

KEREM is a transformative educational initiative rooted in the heart of Israel's Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) community. The program was established out of a deep understanding of the need to strengthen the sense of self-capability and personal and social responsibility among Haredi youth, empowering them to believe in their ability to shape their own future. Our activities take place within the community in both mainstream and alternative institutions and are conducted with the full support and cooperation of school administrations and educational teams.

Target Audience

We serve Haredi boys and girls, ages 15 – 18 (9th – 12th grade), who seek a supportive, empowering, and enriching framework that remains fully committed to Torah values and the unique culture of Haredi education.conducted with the full support and cooperation of school administrations and educational teams
