Spirulina is a micro-algae in the shape of a spiral,
whose nutritional value is unusual.
A daily small amount of it can save a person from
malnutrition! Can save his life.

Spirulina in a closer look
In nature, Spirulina can be found in many
freshwater environments, like ponds, lakes,
and rivers. It flourishes best with plenty of
sunlight and moderate temperature levels,
but it is also highly adaptable, surviving even
in extreme conditions.

Who We Are
is a humanitarian project founded by
Dr. Zeev Degani, the principal of the Herzeliya Hebrew
Gymnasium high school in Tel Aviv, Israel. The project is
operated by a young group of students of the 9th-11th grade,
who are growing Spirulina at home and in school, just like
you’ll do, in order to explore and improve the ways of growin
it , to create Growing Protocols and teach other schools to do
the same. Be a part of the chain to make a change.
How Does
Lend a Hand?
Our aim is to support hungry people around the world by
spreading the knowledge of growing the Spirulina algae.
We (and the FAO) believe that the use of Spirulina can help
battle, reduce it significantly and even solve the malnutrition
phenomenon.
In order to succeed, we will teach you how to grow your own
Spirulina easily and inexpensively, and consume it daily! Then
you will teach others, and they will teach their families, frien
and local society , and they will also teach others – until this
knowledge reaches everyone who needs it.
chain that can foster real change – be
We look forward to working with you and becomin
partners of you. See you in a bit!
