As a resident of Bait Vegan in Jerusalem, Israel, where Shalva is building its new center, I must say I wonder where the money comes from.
There is a gap in Shalva's income that is not explained - who pays for this enormous building?
Do the donors know the building will not be finished any time soon due to its size and resident opposition?
