Adapting to needs

The Spafford Children’s Center has a long history in Jerusalem and has witnessed the many challenges that the children and parents in the region have faced. Many of the children currently registered with us have mothers and grandmothers who were themselves treated at the Center.

Although current needs are different from those experienced when the Spafford family first came to Jerusalem, over the generations the Center has remained a forward-looking institution which is able to adapt and respond to the changing humanitarian needs.

While we offer help to anyone in need, regardless of race, religion, or cultural background, it is currently the Palestinians who have the greatest need.

The SCC’s willing and able staff continue to adapt and look for new ways to respond to changing demands.
