This cozy dormitory is equipped with all necessities and ensures safety. Approximately 19 long-term HUJ volunteers from different European countries reside in the dormitory. On the first of each month, volunteers receive a monthly allowance, sent by HUJ to their bank cards, covering their pocket money, food, transportation, and internet expenses.
