August 2014:
Web-site “Haverim” is perhaps the only in Russia civil society Zionist web-site. It was opened more than 10 years ago as a natural continuation of the work of NGO “Movement without Frontiers” which in the Big Aliyah Epoch helped to hundreds of Jews to overcome different obstacles on their way to Israel. “Haverim” is the joint project of “Movement without Frontiers” and Jewish Community “Shalom” of the Town of Borovichy, Novgorod Region, Russia.
We are grateful for the many years cooperation to famous Norwegian human rights advocate and friend of Israel Professor Kristoffer Gjotterud (1931-2001), to Norwegian organization “Help the Jews Home” and to Ulpan “Halom” (Sankt-Petersburg).
Authors of the Web-site:
