SHORT-TERM PROGRAMS
Onward Israel offers exciting resume building opportunities—internships, service learning, academic study and fellowships—providing you with a global, cross-cultural experience in Israel and direct contact with Israeli peers. Participants in each program come from the same community or organization, creating an opportunity to build local networks and carry on your connections after the program. Onward Israel is powered by The Jewish Agency and participating local Jewish federations and organizations.

With Masa Israel, you can work, volunteer, or study in Israel through over 150 programs. Masa Israel connects young Jewish adults to long-term programs in Israel, providing grants and scholarships for program fees as well as support, activities, and resources while in Israel.

Alternative Winter Break Trips are an incredible opportunity to volunteer in Israel and do something you would not do on an ordinary trip.
