"The Jerusalem Municipality continues to encourage the public towards social entrepreneurship and now appeals to an audience of young immigrants," said Jerusalem Mayor Moshe Lion. "Social action is an integral part of the Jerusalem story and the sense of belonging to the city and can also contribute to the integration of the immigrants."This is the latest program that the municipality has prepared for new immigrants. Earlier this year, the Jerusalem Municipality and the Jerusalem Young Adults Center began handing out goody bags to new olim (immigrants) who arrived in the city recently and were stuck in quarantine to provide support in their new home.
