Did you know that 13,500 Jewish young adults will take part in Birthright Israel programs this summer? More over, our participants have volunteered 222,032 hours to date.

Following a turbulent year on their college campuses, during which they faced unprecedented hatred for being Jewish, Birthright Israel provides today’s Jewish young adults with a safe haven for dialogue, support, and the opportunity to gain further confidence and pride in their identity.

Birthright Israel’s role in shaping our Jewish future is only just beginning. This summer, the impact of our programs on Jewish young adults will leave a lasting imprint on their hearts, minds, and communities and deepen their connection to Israel.
