Our Mission

Jordan River Village is the only year-round, overnight camp and retreat center in the Middle East where children (ages 9-18) living with serious illnesses of all backgrounds can just be kids.

Who We Are

The Jordan River Village officially opened in 2011, with acclaimed actor Chaim Topol as Chairman. It is one of only 16 camps around the world that is part of Paul Newman's world-wide SeriousFun Children's Network, a global community of independently managed and financed camps and programs serving children with serious illnesses and their families. The Village offers unforgettable, fun and medically safe experiences to all children living with serious or chronic illnesses in Israel at no cost to their family.
