Ways to Support Bustan....

Intern or Volunteer!

Bustan is always looking for qualified, long term volunteers or interns who would like to join us in our efforts. Being the small organization we are, we are only able to consider serious volunteers/inters, who are willing to stay for at least six months. While we are unable to offer a stipend for your stay, residence at the village is possible. Please contact us, along with your CV and availability details, at alon@bustan.org

BUSTAN is sustained by individual donors!

One of the most important core concepts at BUSTAN is sustainability - for the land and for its people.

We also need to make BUSTAN, as an organization, sustainable to continue to grow and flourish.

As a supporter of BUSTAN, you know that our creative, collaborative approach, our innovative projects and unique perspective - focusing on both social and environmental justice and the intersection between them - is a unique green voice in the Negev.
