Young Judaea (Hadassah)

Experience your free summer adventure with Young Judaea! Feel the warmth, soul, and impact of Israel with other university students and young professionals from all over the United States.

Discover your roots in the ancient city of Jerusalem and party the night away in Tel Aviv. Climb Masada at sunrise, kayak in the Jordan River, hike the country from the Negev Desert to the northern Galilee, give back through social action projects, and take in the art, music and culture of modern Israel. Also, each of our groups will be joined by Israeli peers, who will share their experiences and perspectives on life in Israel.

Our alumni have said that they could not imagine going with another organization. Experience your life-changing adventure with Young Judaea - we'll see you in Israel!

Summer 2010 trips will take place in May through August. Our specific trip dates will be available this February, when they are released by Taglit-Birthright Israel. Be sure to register, so you can see if the dates work for you!
