A highlight of the Fellowship is the opportunity to form meaningful relationships with Israeli peers. Fellows spend time with our Israeli Bronfman Fellows (Amitim) who are part of our Israel Fellowship program, Amitei Bronfman. The cross-cultural exposure to a group of diverse young Israelis provides for a nuanced, fun encounter.
“The stay [with an Israeli family] was truly incredible. While we rested a great deal, and did a lot of fun things, what was truly astonishing were the people, and the way of life I was introduced to.” – Aaron S.N., alum
Our program generally includes the following opportunities:
On The Bronfman Fellowship, we treat sites like texts, listening for the voices and thoughts the places provide or manifest. Our Fellows see a variety of Israel’s archaeological, religious, natural, and historical sites, such as Masada, Jerusalem’s Old City, and Yad Vashem (The Holocaust Museum). Fellows have the opportunity to spend time in Tel Aviv, Tsfat, and the Negev desert, as well as many other interesting spots. Our itinerary changes from year to year.
