Alternative Spring Break Haifa! Application
Take action and support Israel by volunteering with us in Boston’s sister city!  In the wake of October 7th, the impact on the day to day lives of all Israelis is tremendous. Many farm workers, small business owners, and a significant percentage of the Israeli population have been called up to the reserves, leaving Israeli farmers with crops unattended, businesses suffering, and the workforce in great need of volunteers.  After a meaningful time in Haifa, we will wrap up the week by spending Shabbat in Jerusalem.  Total participation fee is $500, with airfare, hotels, and most meals provided!  Some projects include:

🥑 Food rescue operations to prevent shortages in the Israeli market
📦 Sort, pack, and distribute goods in donation centers
👪 Assist displaced families who need support

Trip Dates: March 10 - 17, 2024 with direct flight from Boston!
