We invite you to join us and help rebuild the communities of the Gaza Envelope region.
After a devastating trauma, hundreds of families from Kfar Aza were suddenly relocated to Kibbutz Ruhama, facing uncertainty and pain.
Now, at the heart of Ruhama, we are building two intertwined sanctuaries of healing:
These spaces will include tree plantings, therapeutic gardens, meditation paths, vegetable beds, fire circles, quiet benches, a forest classroom, a small stream and ecological pond, a learning greenhouse, mud and wood play areas, and more.
This land will hold their pain — and give them room to grow again. Together.
The Forest of Wonder is a gift of breath, safety, and belonging — a natural world where children can simply be children again.
.
Establishing an outdoor learning space incorporating therapeutic elements and play components.
Temporarily relocated to Karmit Gat after the horrific events of October 7th, the Nir Oz community is now nurturing a garden of hope.
A green communal space is being built inside the kindergarten compound — including walking paths, rest benches, medicinal herbs, climbing arches, and a special Tree Nursery: one sapling per family, to be replanted once they return home.
This is more than soil and plants. This is a hug. A new root where everything was uprooted. A healing space that helps this community hold on, grow, and begin again.
.
Uprooted from their homes and temporarily resettled in Hazerim, the Be’eri community is transforming their pain into healing.
After creating hundreds of private gardens for each family — in collaboration with Birthright and Ventata — we now begin the next phase: building community-wide healing spaces in nature.
These spaces will include trees, trails, gathering spots, and open-air therapeutic areas — a true “green clinic” for body, soul, and community.
.
Establishing 3 community healing spaces in nature, located throughout the temporary settlement of Be’eri in Hazerim.
Born from immense grief, this project offers a natural sanctuary for healing.
Located in Moshav Sitria, “Good Earth” supports survivors of the Nova festival massacre and bereaved families through therapeutic landscapes: outdoor clinics, fruit orchards, forest bathing groves, creative zones, mindful trails, outdoor kitchens, healing greenhouses, a plant nursery, and more.
“Good Earth” is not just a place – it’s a promise: that life can grow again, even after the deepest trauma.

In the heart of Moshav Shuva, the Forest of Renewal is growing — a regenerative forest that turns grief into life.
Every tree planted will carry the name and story of a fallen hero. The land, which once absorbed blood and fire, will become a sanctuary of remembrance, resilience, and rebirth.
This forest will host retreats, therapy groups, and visits by bereaved families and the wider public. It will become a space of tourism, values, and healing — uniting the South with the rest of the country.
Led by Dr. Gedalya Fendel, a family physician who created an emergency clinic during the October 7th attacks, this project is deeply rooted in both tragedy and hope.

6 dunams of forest including 400 Israeli heritage trees, thousands of plants, and group gathering spaces

For over five years, Ventata has led hundreds of projects across Israel — planting trees, rebuilding gardens, and creating natural spaces of healing and connection.
With the help of thousands of volunteers and generous donors, we plant roots of resilience, community, and hope.
For five years now, the Vanta’at nonprofit has been working for people and communities across the country — leading hundreds of projects involving planting, rehabilitation, and the creation of healing spaces, together with thousands of volunteers and generous donors. Together, we are growing roots of connection, healing, and hope.
Ventata is a certified nonprofit, recipient of the Israel Earth Prize 2023 for outstanding impact in environment and community.
Every donation goes directly to funding our six projects in the Gaza Envelope: tree planting, creating community gardens, rehabilitating green spaces, and coordinating volunteers and professionals on the ground.
Nature and the land are proven tools for psychological and social healing. For uprooted communities left without homes or roots, a community garden, forest, or healing space offers a new beginning, deep therapy, and a sense of returning to life.
Each donor receives a personal digital certificate of appreciation plus periodic updates on the progress of the project you supported. And of course, you’ll receive love and deep gratitude from the residents of the Gaza Envelope, who are healing, recovering, and growing anew thanks to your support.
Absolutely. The Vanta’at nonprofit has been active since 2019 and has led hundreds of projects across the country, including in schools, therapeutic centers, peripheral communities, the Gaza Envelope, and the north. On our website, you’ll find field documentation — photos, stories, testimonials, and videos.
“Growing the Gaza Envelope” is a focused campaign running from May to June 2025, but it is part of the nonprofit’s broader, long-term efforts for rehabilitation and healing in Israel. Support can continue even after the campaign ends.
No. All donations go into a shared fund aimed at enabling the realization of all six projects in the Gaza Envelope. We aim to reach an overall goal so that every community receives support and every part of the rehabilitation effort can move forward together.
For any questions we are available at info@venatata.org
Your personal certificate of appreciation will be sent to you within 30 minutes of your donation.
A receipt will be sent in a separate email within a few minutes.
