Lapid Israel | About
Lapid has:
Built a network of thousands of committed alumni, families and investors
who want to be an integral part of the Jewish People's future.
Created programs
that come BEFORE college decisions are made and thus can positively impact a student’s choice of school, studies, social circles and extr
a-curricular activities.
Facilitated the development of high school
age programs in Israel that
co
ntribute significantly to Jewish Zionist education.
Offered educational, cultural and social options for all types of students
through programs of varying length, content, location and structure.
Created a core of alumni
who represent the natural reserv
oir of potential participants for MASA programs.
Brought
half a million teens to Israel
over the past 35 years.
Lapid will:
Help sustain a strong relationship with the Jewish State by facilitating a
meaningful Israel educational experience which is vital for fostering a strong
Jewish identity.
Work to engage teenage participants at a unique time in their lives on a
journey through Israel that will point the way to a more meaningful future.
Enable teens to travel to Israel and then return home to synagogues, youth
groups, camps and schools energized and resolved to act as strong advocates
on behalf of the Jewish State and the Jewish people.
