Young adult 10-month fellowship

The Jewish Federation of Florida’s Gulf Coast, in collaboration with Partnership2Gether, is seeking applicants to become a Southeast Fellow in Hadera-Eiron, Israel for a term from September through July 2023. Applications are due by Monday, Feb. 28.

Southeast Fellows will be immersed in the culture of Israel, living with other young adults in the Israeli region of Hadera-Eiron. The Fellows will get to share their experiences growing up as a young person in a Jewish Community in the Southeast United States with Israelis.

The Fellow will engage with the local community in a hands-on volunteer experience building international, professional, and social networks. Fellows will work with teens and young adults and will have the opportunity to share their adventures and knowledge gained during the 10-month experience with members of the Southeast communities which are part of the Partnership2Gether (P2G) program through social media and virtual programming.

Fellowships are open to young adults, post-college between the ages of 22-28 from the P2G Southeast communities including Florida’s Gulf Coast (Pinellas, Pasco, and Hernando counties). Full travel, accommodations, and living expenses are included.
