In Person. Join us for an immersive giving experience focused on building your connection to Israel and Jewish peoplehood. We’re teaming up with Honeycomb through iGive, an innovative teen philanthropy program designed to empower tomorrow’s Jewish leaders through hands-on giving. With a focus on supporting organizations that aid Israel, iGive encourages teens to explore pressing social issues while cultivating a spirit of generosity and responsibility through collaborative workshops, experiential activities, and engaging discussions. Teens develop vital leadership skills in this service learning program, including fundraising, consensus-building, and financial management. At the end of the program, participants will make a grant of the money they raised to the organization(s) of their choice.

iGive will meet monthly on Wednesday nights on 1/22, 2/12, 3/12, 4/9, 5/7.

This class is made possible due to a grant from Honeycomb. It is important to us that our classes are financially accessible. If your family has any questions, or would like to discuss financial assistance for this program or has any other questions, please contact JessAnn Smith (jsmith@mmjccm.org).
