ABOUT

Aardvark Israel’s mission is to bring together in Israel a diverse group of students from all over the world for meaningful, life-changing gap year experiences that strengthen their Jewish identity, deepen their commitment to Israel, and foster their personal growth.

Aardvark recognizes that every student has a different set of objectives for their Israel experience and thus they 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. Other partners include the American Jewish University and the NJY Camps.
