The organization’s vision is to unify Israeli society by creating real and lasting friendships between different types of Jews in Israel. For the last 10 years, Kesher Yehudi (KY) has been doing the impossible – bringing together Israel’s secular and religious Jews with astonishing results. Tzili Schneider, KY is well-known and actively involved in 27 pre-induction military academies across Israel
, connecting more than 1500 young men and women from diverse backgrounds every year to their Jewish heritage and to one another. In addition, through its Chavruta Program, KY connects participants from all over the country, matching them merely by age, location and field of interest. Together, they study subjects related to Jewish identity, Jewish wisdom and the Jewish holidays. Every month, over 100 new secular Israelis of all ages are paired with a Torah study partner. In fact, over 26,500 young religious and secular individuals have already enthusiastically joined the program. Because there’s no stronger glue than the Torah itself and no better light to ignite their souls. With your help, we can foster unity and shape the next generation of Jewish leaders.
