Aardvark Israel

Aardvark Israel’s mission is to bring together in Israel a diverse group of Jewish students ages 17-21 from all over the world for meaningful, life-changing experiences that strengthen their Jewish identity, deepen their commitment to Israel, and foster their personal growth. We recognize that every student has a different set of objectives for their Israel experience and thus we offer a menu of opportunities allowing students to personalize their program in Israel. Within the core program, there are a wide variety of activities offered, and additional add-on options are also available for those who wish to customize their year even further. The Goals of Aardvark Israel are for participants to: Love, advocate for, and contribute to Israel Love Judaism Strengthen their connection to the worldwide Jewish People Grow as a person and have fun in the process Aardvark Israel operates in conjunction with MASA, which is a project of the Government of Israel and Jewish communities around the world, represented by the Jewish Agency for Israel and its partners, United Jewish Communities / the Federations of North America, and Keren Hayesod – UIA.
