This trip is a gift from Taglit-Birthright Israel and covers round-trip airfare plus ten days of educational programming in Israel. Any Jewish youth, 18-26 (post high-school), who has never been to Israel on a peer-group program is eligible to apply.
With Shorashim you experience the awesome adventure of Israel from
the inside, through the eyes and hearts of Israeli peers.
Travel for 10-days with Israeli friends and staff who share the
beauty, excitement and complexities of their country with you.
Meet with Israeli figures that are shaping Israel today. Hike
in spectacular nature areas of Israel. From a meeting with residents
of the Golan, to Bedouin hospitality in the desert, from the liveliness of Tel Aviv, to the diversity and spirituality
of Jerusalem, experience the history, the vibrancy and the challenges
of modern Israel. Engage in a community service project in Haifa - Boston's P2K city. Make lifelong Israeli and American friends. Expand your social group at your university or in the Boston area.
The gift of a lifetime and the experience of a lifetime!
