Free trip to Israel for Jewish young adults 18-26!

KESHER Birthright trips are 10 days and absolutely free! They’re open to Jewish young adults who are 18-26 and who have never been to Israel on a peer program. KESHER is a part of the Reform Movement, and the trips are specially designed for participants who come from a Reform Jewish background.

If you know of any young adults who will be applying, please send Rabbi Mosbacher their names – AND EMAIL ADDRESSES. He will pass them along as part of the registration process, and this can significantly improve their chance for placement, provided the trip dates they select are available. Of course, they must also go through the standard registration process themselves.

Anyone interested in going to Israel with KESHER Birthright should sign up for the Early Update list at www.gokesher.org. Do this before registration opens, and you’ll get important updates and reminders to help you with your registration.

Registration opens on February 15, 2012 for those who have never applied to Birthright before. If you’ve previously applied, you can register in advance on February 14.
