A CommUNITY Trip to Israel enables you to engage with Israel through exclusive access to premier hotels, venues, and experiences. Along with fellow San Diego Jewish community members, you will meet with high-level government officials, journalists, academics, and experts in a variety of fields, while also connecting with everyday Israelis. Most of the trip experiences will be in groups of 30-40 people. We’ll also have special, meaningful moments when our entire group gathers, representing people involved in our local synagogues and Jewish agencies, as well as people who are looking for deeper connection.
Jewish Federation of San Diego County wants to celebrate Israel’s 75th birthday and the 25th Anniversary of San Diego’s partnership with Sha’ar HaNegev with YOU. Be part of Israel’s next chapter and join this historic trip during the most beautiful time of the year! As a participant, you will have the opportunity to make a meaningful gift on this trip of a lifetime. We hope you will be inspired by your experience and make a significant contribution to increase the impact YOUR Federation makes in Israel.
