More Trouble at Hadassah

There must be a lot more trouble at Hadassah than meets the eye – it seems Hadassah is planning to sell off some of its assets here in Israel. One of the properties likely to be put on the block is the brand new Young Judaea youth hostel in Jerusalem’s Givat Massuah (near the Malcha Mall) – valued at NIS 70 million the building stands on a 3.1-acre plot and opened in 2006.

Among other uses, the complex is used for Young Judaea’s year course program and WUJS Israel Jerusalem.

A senior Hadassah source said the decision to sell the guest house was made before the Madoff fraud was revealed.
