People and places
The stories of Givatayim.
Homes, streets and memorial sites.
The people who left something of themselves here.
Abraham Aldema
The pioneer considered the happiest man in the Yishuv, yet he fought with uncompromising determination to make Hebrew take root everywhere.
Bracha Fuld
A young Haganah member killed by British gunfire on the streets of Tel Aviv while securing an operation to bring in illegal immigrants, she became a symbol of the struggle for free immigration.
Simcha Blass
The brilliant engineer whose daring calculations everyone laughed at - until his water pipes saved besieged Jerusalem from thirst. The man who invented the global drip-irrigation revolution and proved that what sounds like science fiction is the desert's miracle cure.
