Shalom and Welcome!

 
Founded as a not-for-profit organization in 1997, "Shalheveth" actually began its activities in 1986 when a small group of resolute individuals set in motion a project to improve the quality of life for severely physically disabled adults.

Today, the organization manages a community housing project that:

  • offers independent living for severely disabled adults and their caregivers
  • coordinates cultural and social activities for severely disabled adults in the community at-large
  • provides handicapped-accessible transportation services
  • organizes a once-in-a-lifetime overseas trip for severely disabled adults

Organizational Goals

  • To improve the quality of life for severely disabled adults
  • To raise the standard of living for severely disabled adults
  • To assist residents in independent housing to pay for rent and welfare service fees
  • To provide severely disabled adults with necessary support services
