About Write On for Israel

Write On For Israel is an intensive two-year program that trains a select group of high school students to become advocates for Israel through journalism. A project of the Jewish Week  of New York and funded by the AVI CHAI Foundation, Write On For Israel empowers students to advocate for Israel through writing, broadcasting, and public speaking. Seminars are taught by top educators and journalists and feature Israeli officials, IDF officers, PR executives and other professionals.

What participants gain:

  • Knowledge of Jewish and Israeli history, ancient and current
  • Access to top experts and leaders who will help you make Israel’s case on campus
  • The confidence and skills to write op-eds, debate and speak publicly in support of Israel when you get to college.
  • Participate in a 10-day Israel mission at the reduced price of $1,000, where you’ll meet with Israeli politicians, journalists, and teenagers, and learn about the security and political issues of the day. (Scholarship money is available).
