At Midreshet Torat Chessed, we believe in the power of a multi-faceted Year-in-Israel experience. Our program combines serious Torah learning with meaningful and intensive chessed in a way that is life altering, as each aspect mutually enhances the other. Our students spend their mornings and evenings immersed in Torah learning, and then devote their afternoons as counselors to the amazing children at Bet Elazraki children’s home in Netanya.
We believe that these two elements go hand in hand- that the Torah learning provides a spiritual framework for the chessed in the afternoons, just as the chessed adds significance and unique meaning to the Torah learning being done in the morning. Each student in the program is thereby able to recognize her own singular talents and strengths within the context of Jewish life and the Jewish land, and learns, in the most concrete way, the power of her ability to give. This combination arms our students towards a life of learning and giving, all within the context of Avodat Hashem.
Throughout their year, our students will dedicate their time towards strengthening their connection to the three major pillars of Jewish life- Torat Yisrael, Am Yisrael, and Eretz Yisrael. In addition to becoming part of the Bet Elazraki team and volunteering with the wonderful children, they will work alongside Israeli Sherut Leumi girls – meeting Israelis their age and gaining an understanding of Israeli society and culture. At Midreshet Torat Chessed, we will explore the State of Israel through trips, hikes, shabbatot and programs.
Midreshet Torat Chessed provides a warm and nurturing environment for a meaningful and growth-filled year of learning and giving.
