  • Programs

  • Camp Koby provides children whose parents or siblings were murdered in terror attacks or died in another traumatic tragedy with a safe, fun and therapeutic environment.  Surrounded by their peers, specially trained counselors, and professional therapists, children feel comfortable expressing the grief and anxiety that accompanies the sudden death of a parent or sibling.
  • The Memorial Tapestries


    Most memorials for terror victims or fallen soldiers are created from rock or metal by a commissioned artist. These memorial tapestries were made by families to remember their loved ones who were murdered by terrorists.
  • The Koby Mandell Foundation in collaboration with the Israel Center for the Prevention of Psychotrauma has created a new initiative: spiritual healing groups  for bereaved parents and widows.
  • Jewish teens from the US Canada and other English speaking countries spend 5 to 6 weeks in Israel touring, learning about Israel and volunteering as Camp Koby counselors.   Participants serve as counselors in our traditional  Camp Koby sleep away camp or in one of a number of specially designed day camps for Ethiopian immigrant children, Gush Katif Evacuees or other children at risk.

The Blessing of a Broken Heart

 Sherri Mandell's wrenching, soulful and beautiful book is more than an act of rememberance. It is an act of grace.
