About The Program

At Midreshet AMIT, you will spend your day learning, questioning, and growing in Torah. From interesting and challenging classes to guided chavruta study, your year will be packed with learning geared to help you develop a lifelong connection to Torah. Our home is in Beit Hayeled, AMIT’s well-known foster home for disadvantaged youth. You will spend time each day teaching, playing, and caring for some of Israel's most needy children. As a "big sister," you will be challenged to give of yourself in a way you have never experienced before and you will be transformed in the provess. Your connection to Israel will be deepened through the unique experience of living and interacting with dedicated Israeli couples and committed Sherut Leumi young women. Through adventurous tiyulim you will travel the length and breadth of Israel, learning about our history and gaining a greater appreciation for the State of Israel.

Safety and security

Whether you are a current or soon-to-be fellow or parent/guardian, we invite you to watch our Safety and Security video from Masa’s Chief Security Officer, Amir Keinan. This interactive video summarizes and addresses Masa’s main safety and security topics; you can choose the order in which you want to watch. Upon arrival, fellows will also receive a full safety and security briefing from their program organizer.
