Creating a person-to-person bond between Israel and Cincinnati.

 

The Chaverim M'Israel (Friends From Israel) program brings two 18-year-old Israelis to Cincinnati from our partner city, Netanya, Israel. These teens have chosen to defer their Israeli Defense Forces service and come to Cincinnati for a year of community service. Through interaction and education in schools and other community events, these young emissaries help Cincinnatians form an increased awareness of and a connection with the land, culture, and people of Israel.

 

 

In a typical year, the Chaverim M'Israel are available to come to schools and other community groups for a one-time visit or on a more regular basis. A full curriculum of lessons about Israel is also available.
