Yahel Israel Service Learning

Yahel is an educational organization that offers service learning and social action programs in Israel. Founded in 2009, Yahel creates programs that are tailored to non-Israeli groups who seek to experience Israel beyond the tour bus and make a real contribution to Israeli society. Through partnerships with local grassroots NGO's, Yahel creates high-quality immersion experiences that are community based and emphasize depth and sustainability.

MissionYahel's mission is to respectfully assist communities in Israel while effectively inspiring participants to continue a life of civic engagement. We believe that service learning, when done right, can connect people, shed light on real life issues, illuminate personal journeys and promote social change. Yahel programs serve to deepen the connection between Israeli and Diaspora Jews through a common desire to work toward a more just world.
