This year is the 5th anniversary of Tzuby’s Kids and it all started with a child’s need of having a family. Then we saw the same need in over 50,000 children from Romania and we realized we have to build a platform to help the integration of these children in families. After 5 years, we…

The dementia created by digital media is not limited to children: “Even when we do not use the smartphone, when we keep it quiet next to us, our brain is connected to a virtual world and we think at that very moment what mail or message we could receive or what news we could see on…
