Travel Details
Volunteer Mission to Israel
Travelers will bear witness, participate in hands-on volunteer projects that meet pressing needs, and experience how Cleveland supports Israel in times of peace and war. See how the Campaign for Jewish Needs and Israel Emergency Campaign dollars are supporting Israelis through unprecedented times.

Volunteer experiences may include:
- Picking fruits and vegetables at local farms
- Helping displaced families from the north and south of Israel
- Food packing and distribution
- Meeting with bereaved families and soldiers to show support
