Next year in Israel

We all grow up with the thought of "next year in Israel", this program makes that a reality. I absolutely loved my experience on Otzma. I learned Hebrew, met some of my best friends, and volunteered in several different capacities. I got a chance to tutor Ethiopian kids, untangle parachutes on an army base, work in a community garden, bake alongside troubled youth at a local bakery, and even work as a hotel maid on an eco-kibbutz. Most of the program centers around volunteering, but there is also an educational component, as well as a chance to tour the country. Never would I have been able to experience anything like the opportunities Otzma introduced to me.
