  1. Jewish National FundEssence of Life Campaign Supporting the soldiers and families of the Ramon Air Force Base

  2. Ramon Air Force Base Facts • Located in Mitzpe Ramon in Southern Israel. • More than 3,000 soldiers live on the base. • As well as an additional 1,500 family members – many of which are children. • Soldiers spend a mandatory 3 years in the IDF (some choose to stay on longer).

  3. Water Reclamation Plant • Israel has a significant water crisis. We must develop new techniques to recycle water and to avoid using expensive drinking water to irrigate the grass and trees. • The current water treatment plant at Ramon Air Force Base is outdated and unsustainable. • We will use cutting-edge technology that duplicates the physical, chemical, and biological processes that occur in the unique ecosystem of a natural wetland, without any use of electrical energy. • This technology is a model for other isolated areas anywhere in Israel, especially the 65 planned new military bases being built in the Negev. • It will save the base 80 million gallons of drinking water a year. • The recycled water will ensure that the park remains green and healthy and enable additional planting throughout the base.
