Thousands more are waiting at the gates of Israel.

For them, special facilities, special education, and physical care must be provided. It is in Hadassah's newest project of "Ann Frank Havens" that Hadassah plans to absorb the children under twelve. Eight such Havens are already completed, and plans for four more are in the 1960 future.
