Making aliyah can be difficult, but the real challenge lies in the next steps after that - how to take a foreign land and make it home. We are so excited to be a part of your journey and to help you and connect you to all of the resources you have available to you!
From Hebrew classes to job listings to even offering a place to stay for a week once you arrive in the land - we want to help.

I began my Aliyah journey on April 2017 from Charlotte NC USA at 70 years of age.
My Rabbi and those in my Temple and many friends and family supported and helped me on this journey.
I brought all the paperwork required to become a citizen and 8 months later on Dec 27 2018 I received my citizenship in Israel. Finally home.
They helped me get them to the right agency. They also helped me look for some places to live and other things.This love and support was greatly needed as all things were so new.
I needed a lot of help during that long process. Several friends of mine in Israel had been letting me stay with them while going through this long process. I still needed a place to stay for a period of time and more help with information and transportation. My friends told me of the Aliyah Return Center that they helped us in this process of coming home. I know that they also worked with the Jewish Agency for Aliyah.
They allowed me to come and stay at the ARC and helped me with reading and understanding Hebrew papers and help in filling many out.
I will ever be thankful for these loving people and the great work they are doing for us who are making Aliyah.
I also want to help others make Aliyah since going through this process myself, so I decided to join them and help my people come home. I am so thankful to be able to be part of others journeys to Israel through the Aliyah Return Center.
I thank all of you who support them so they can help many more of us come home.
G-d bless you Chaim Malespin and all at the Aliyah Return Center.
Shalom!
