We are reaching out to you with a sincere appeal to support an educational program for boarding school at-risk students in grades 11 and 12. These students have the unique opportunity to participate in an educational journey that delves deeply into the history of the Holocaust and Jewish roots—a journey that could profoundly impact their lives.
Our Program
Throughout the school year, our students participate in comprehensive studies about the Holocaust and Jewish roots. The curriculum culminates in a two-month intensive course followed by a one-week educational journey to Poland. This journey includes visits to significant historical sites such as Auschwitz-Birkenau, Majdanek, Treblinka, Warsaw, and more, as well as meetings with Holocaust survivors and various testimonies. It is our duty to ensure that the Holocaust and its atrocities are never forgotten. The journey to Poland offers students a unique and in-depth learning experience.
The Challenge
The total cost per student for this program is 7,000 NIS. The program includes two months of intensive studies before the trip to Poland during afternoon hours with all the children of the council and the trip itself, which includes flights, hotels, full board, security, insurance, and visits to various sites. Unfortunately, many of our students come from challenging economic backgrounds and cannot afford these expenses. Participation in the program is not mandatory, but we believe that every student should have the chance to join without financial barriers.
