==History== Shluhot was founded in 1948 by former members of the Bnei Akiva Zionist youth movement on the land that had belonged to the depopulated Palestinian village of al-Ashrafiyya. Initially, a temporary camp was set up along with a group from the Hashomer Hatzair youth movement. After each group was assigned land for a kibbutz, the secular group members founded Reshafim.
