For Gedaliah Blum, "Economic Zionism" is much more than a cute saying. It is the most effective way to redeem the Land of Israel, and to strengthen the families who sacrifice so much and risk so much to return to the land of their ancestors.

For over 11 years, Gedaliah and his wife Elisheva have been building Judea and Samaria by helping more than 3000 family-run small business in the region. Today, they have opened up these doors to their work, wide open for people throughout the globe to take an active role in "Economic Zionism" for the goal of redemption. The initiative is called First Fruits for Redemption (https://first-fruits.org/).
