Unwavering Commitment

Since October 7, Israel Free Spirit has brought nearly 4,000 young Jewish adults to Israel, providing a transformative experience during a time when Jewish pride and community are more essential than ever.

In 2025, Israel Free Spirit proudly partnered with communities and organizations across North America to bring participants to Israel through its programs. Partners included MJE, Pikesville Jewish Congregation, Altneu, Save a Farm, TJJ Moms, AJMA, Touro, Yeshiva University, the University of Maryland, and Rutgers University, as well as community trips from West Hempstead, New York (four buses); the Five Towns, New York (one bus); Teaneck, New Jersey (two buses); and Baltimore, Maryland (five buses). We also partnered with OU departments including JLIC, Yachad, and ECP.

Safety in Action

When the war escalated with Iran in June 2025, our highest priority was ensuring our participants' well-being. We acted quickly and decisively, evacuating nearly 200 participants safely and without incident.

Birthright Israel recognized our director for her exceptional leadership and support during the war in Iran. She personally accompanied our groups to Cyprus by boat, provided guidance and care amid intense stress, and served as a vital resource for Birthright and participants throughout the crisis.
