With 1,620 students and 135 faculty members representing all the religious traditions in Israel, it is one of the largest Palestinian educational institutions in Israel and the West Bank. Volunteers have participated in all stages of building the college. Future plans call for the consolidation of all laboratories into one building and expanding to the University level. Today, it also has facilities for homeless children and disabled children, as well as a maternity hospital. The Four Homes of Mercy is a monument to the spirit of caring to which it is dedicated.
Volunteers can help in many areas of care giving, as well as in a variety of maintenance chores.
