Binyamin · Eretz Yisroel
In the hills of Binyamin, half an hour from Yerushalayim. Private homes, gardens and open space — and a kehilla of our own.
א חסידישער יישוב פאר אמעריקאנער חסידישע משפחות — בני תורה און בעלי בתים
Illustrative concept
Our history
Yidden have always yearned and striven to go up and live in Eretz Yisroel — our home.
The Ramban arrives in Yerushalayim and rebuilds its Jewish community.
The Shelah HaKadosh leaves Prague to settle in Eretz Yisroel.
The Ohr HaChaim reaches Yerushalayim with his talmidim.
The Baal Shem Tov sets out with true mesirus nefesh — but is not zoche to arrive.
Talmidei HaBaal Shem Tov — some 300 Chassidim — go up together as a chaburah, led by R’ Menachem Mendel of Vitebsk.
Talmidei HaGra follow — and aliyah never stops, to this very day.
A true kibbutz galuyos: over 4,300 olim from France, 3,300 from America, nearly 1,000 from England.
Every generation had its builders. Now it’s our turn.

of all Jews in the world already live in Eretz Yisroel — on track to pass 50% by about 2035.

Secular Dati Chareidi
The future of Klal Yisroel is being built here. The question is whether our families will be part of it.

The challenges
Why staying is so hard, and how the moshav answers each challenge.
No established kehilla of American Chassidish families. Far from parents and family, a kehilla is everything — without one, most who came “for a few years” go back.
A kehilla built by American Chassidish families, for American Chassidish families.
Yerushalayim rents are steep, and buying a home is nearly impossible.
Land for a symbolic sum — and a real path to owning your own home.
Tiny apartments and crowded, noisy streets — no room to raise children with menuchas hanefesh.
Private homes, gardens, and open space.
Few mosdos are both serious Chassidish and right for American children — with Yiddish, English and Hebrew all in the mix.
Mosdos for our community, with Hebrew–English integration from day one.
Careers don’t transfer easily — and when support from home runs out, so does the plan to stay.
Work near home: remote-work infrastructure, local businesses, and a local economy over time.
Renting, moving, waiting — everything about how we live here says “for now.”
Ownership from the start: a caravilla that’s yours in 2½ years, then a permanent home.
More than a move · Our mission
Helping build a new, permanent community in the heartland of Eretz Yisroel.
Making it easier for American families to make aliyah — and for those already here to stay for good.
The process
First we build the group. The land comes after.
50+ families ready to be the founders, making the decisions together.
Until now, new yishuvim have been built almost only by the dati-leumi community. A large, serious group shows the authorities real demand from ours.
Open land in Binyamin, ½ hour from Yerushalayim — or, with a serious group, one of two already-approved yishuvim off Route 443, between Givat Ze’ev and Modi’in.
Working with the Mateh Binyamin Regional Council — not an outpost.
New yishuvim usually start with Amana’s basic rental caravans: ₪1,000–3,000 a month depending on size (about ₪1,000 per 45 m²), plus ₪1,000 for infrastructure. They’re simple, budget units — not right for every family. So we’re offering two better options:
A high-standard caravilla, finished inside like a beautiful home. 0% financing over 30 monthly payments — roughly what you’d pay in rent in Yerushalayim. After 2½ years it’s fully paid off, and it’s yours.
The same high-standard caravilla, rented from Amana for a much lower monthly cost. We’re working to convince Amana to offer it.
A real town: streets, infrastructure, every communal need.
Land through bar-reshut or a ~50-year lease for a symbolic sum — you pay mainly for infrastructure.
₪200,000
Infrastructure per 500 m² plot — rough estimate (about $65,000).
The numbers
Land comes through bar-reshut or a ~50-year lease for only a symbolic sum — founders pay mainly for infrastructure.
This is not a developer. Every family who is there has an equal say in how the moshav is set up.
Cost of a 500 m² plot
Bars drawn to scale. Rough estimates — about one-tenth the price for founders already there when zoning comes through.
Rough estimate: land through bar-reshut, infrastructure as above, and regular building costs for a ~300 m² house.

The vision
As founders, we’re not buying into someone else’s plan. Together, we decide what this community becomes.
Some of the ideas already on the table
Built by its founders
Together we choose what to build, what comes first, and how it’s funded. These are ideas, not promises — each one is built only if the founders choose it and it’s viable.
