Alternative Break

JNF-USA has been running Alternative Break trips to Israel for over 18 years! We have brought 3,000 college students and young adults ages 18-24 to get their hands dirty while making a difference for the land and people of Israel!

Each day of the trip is comprised of volunteering, touring, education, and independent time in the evenings and on Shabbat.
Included with acceptance on the trip: $1,800 stipend towards your flight to Israel, accommodations, and most meals.

Volunteering Highlights:
– Meet with Israelis, soldiers, survivors, and influential figures to hear their stories, firsthand.
– Work together with HaShomer HaChadash in farms to prevent a massive shortage in the Israeli market, ensuring that no farmer is left alone.
– Cook & pack meals for Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers.
– Rebuild Israel’s southern and now northern communities affected by October 7 by planting, cleaning, painting, and repairing.
– And more!
