Are you a Jewish teen in grades 9, 10 or 11 who wants to go on an Israel trip this summer? Apply for Federation CJA’s GOTEENISRAEL voucher and receive $1,800 USD towards a trip organized by your trip provider.
Vouchers will be provided for applicants who have registered for an Israel summer program through one of our trip provider partners and upon receipt of a completed GOTEENISRAEL application form.
Strengthen your relationship with Israel and connect to your Jewish heritage! GOTEENISRAEL vouchers ensure that more teens can experience Israel firsthand. An Israel summer experience for teens nurtures and strengthens a long-lasting connection and commitment to Israel and Jewish life.
Are you a Jewish teen wanting to further your Jewish leadership skills and participate in an immersive fellowship? Federation CJA is proud to present the DALFEN FELLOWS Teen Israel Leadership Initiative, a prestigious fellowship falling under Federation CJA’s GOTEENISRAEL umbrella. This will be our third cohort funded through the generosity of the Murray and Karen Dalfen Family, and Federation CJA.
“We believe in identifying and supporting Jewish adolescents in their path towards Jewish leadership by providing them with experiences, knowledge and competencies that will ultimately lead them to become effective defenders and supporters of Israel and the Jewish heritage.” - Murray and Karen Dalfen
CHANGE STARTS WITH YOU!
Participate in a leadership program with a cohort of teens from across the community to strengthen your connection to our homeland, your Jewish identity, and your potential to be the next great Jewish leader.
