Western Galilee Now

Western Galilee Now is a consortium of small businesses, social enterprises, and kibbutzim across the Galilee that depend on tourism as their primary source of income. By supporting their growht through training and marketing initiatives, these businesses can expand employment opportunities and help strengthen the local community and the wider region. These businesses have been signficantly affected by the war over the last two years, and lack of tourism in the region. 

Jewish National Fund-USA's Support Packages for soldiers, reservists' families, first responders, and their famiies have become a lifeline not just for the recipients, but also for the small businesses producing the goods. These packages have enables many businesses to remain open. In addition, Western Galilee Now members prepared nutritious meals for soldiers stationed along the borders.
