This summer,
chances are your kids
will not discover
their heritage at the
Food Court.
In addition to shopping, fast food or
hanging with friends, your kids can come
away with something much more
meaningful this summer. A connection to their
Jewish identity. Israel Experience can
refer them to over 200 programs, including
mountain rappelling, white-water
rafting or walking in the footsteps of their
ancestors. There are even programs that
allow students to gain meaningful
experience for their college applications.
So instead of your kids riding escalators
this summer, imagine them climbing
Masada. Many Israel Experience programs
are approved by and can be partially financed
through the Passport to Israel Program. For
more information on the Passport to Israel Program
contact Amy Zelenka at the United Jewish Federation
671-1600 ext. 123. To learn more about the various
Israel Experience programs call Dan Lepow at the
United Jewish Federation, 671-1600 ext. 120; or Israel
Experience, Inc. at 1-888-99-ISRAEL.
