About Mifgash Choref 2023-24 Application
Join in with your close Midrasha friends for a chance to get to know Israel from the inside, being hosted by our friends from Mosenson in Hod Hasharon. In past years we've spent time in Haifa, Tel Aviv, and Jerusalem - visiting historical sites, shopping the shuk, seeing museums and so much more. The formal application process will open soon. (Note: Your early registration does not guarantee this teen's spot on the trip. Teens still need to formally apply and then will be accepted by Oct 15th.)
Note: More information can also be found online at https://www.ccmidrasha.com/mifgash

About the cost of Mifgash Choref: All fees include flight, daily bus transportation, overnight retreat fees, paying our educational staff, and programming/entrance costs for adventures in Israel.
Registering early enables us to lock in affordable plane tickets, making the overall Winter adventure tuition lower. This $200 deposit will be applied against the full cost and can be refunded (minus a $25 admin fee) if you cancel your spot/s no later than September 1, 2023, or if the teen is not accepted for this year's trip. The cost for the trip is $4100.
Our goals for Mifgash are to:
- Grow our Jewish teens' relationships with Israel by building friendships between CCM teens and their Israeli peers.
- Strengthen relationships between our teens and the people of Israel
- Educate Israeli teens about Jewish life in the American Jewish Diaspora
- Serve as a catalyst for further Israel-American Diaspora relationship building and programming
- Develop a deeper connection to Israel through personal relationships
- Share our culture and our Jewish lives in America
- Engage in Tikkun Olam (Repairing the world) and Fun (Kef)
