BOND WITH YOUR TEEN ON THIS MEANINGFUL EXPERIENCE HELPING THE LAND AND THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL.
August 18 - 22, 2024
The only thing better than spending 4 meaningful days providing hands-on support to our beloved friends from communities across the Israel Envelope and the Galilee, is doing it with your teenage child. What better way to share your values by getting your hands dirty and experiencing this moment in time together. When you help a community move back, watch a child walk into their school, dance with an IDF soldier, see the gratitude in a farmer’s eyes, you will never be the same, and neither will your teen.
Volunteering Highlights:
- Work together on farms, picking vegetables and other crops to help prevent a massive shortage in the Israeli market and ensure that no farmer is left alone.
- Spend time with evacuees and the people who are providing lifesaving efforts to support them.
- Physically help rebuild Israel's southern communities affected by October 7 – painting, gardening, building, and do your share in creating a better future for the land and the people of Israel.
- Meet with Israelis, soldiers, survivors, and influential figures to hear firsthand about the ongoing situation and personal experiences.
