Taglit-Birthright Israel
provides the gift of first time, peer group, educational trips to Israel for Jewish
young
adults ages 18 to 26. Taglit-Birthright Israel's
founders created this program to send thousands of young
Jewish adults
from all over the world to Israel as a gift in order to diminish the growing division
between Israel
and Jewish communities around the world; to strengthen the sense of solidarity among
world Jewry; and to
strengthen participants' personal Jewish identity and connection to the Jewish people.
