National Young Leadership Summer Mission to Israel

Prepare for the most memorable trip of your life.

Enjoy a behind-the-scenes Israel experience that goes beyond being a tourist. Connect with like-minded adventurers (age 22-40) through the framework of tikkun olam and make memories you’ll be talking about for years to come. Meet Israelis from every sector of society, savor Shabbat overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, gain insight into the unique Israeli Start Up culture, enjoy the nightlife of Tel Aviv, learn about Federation supported nonprofits, and meet students from the Ethiopian National Project.

This mission brings you exciting experiences with everything from amazing jeep rides through the Golan Heights to discovering the direct impact the Federation works to create in Israel. Learn More
