The Goodman Foundation announces it will fund experiential international-style summer camps for more than 1,600 displaced children and teens, ages 12 to 17 from the north and Gaza envelope, including scholarships for those whose homes were damaged by Iranian strikes.
The Goodman Foundation, an Israeli-Canadian philanthropic fund, is expanding its Summer Camps initiative for children from Israel's north and Gaza envelope communities, who have endured months of displacement and uncertainty after the 2025-2026 war. The announcement — shared on Monday evening — details camps for more than 1,600 teens aged 12-17 across the country, featuring trips, social activities, volunteering, and challenges, screen-free. The foundation also said it would offer scholarships to children whose homes were damaged by Iranian attacks. As The Zioneer reported on June 3, the initial plan covered 1,600 children; the current version adds specificity on the age range and the scholarship track. The initiative is organized independently of government frameworks, relying on private philanthropy to provide normalcy during the reconstruction period.
