Birthright Israel
with uf hillel
Birthright Israel is a free, 10-day trip for Jewish students to explore Israel together.
UF to Israel is the premiere campus provider for Israeli adventures, tailored to University of Florida students. Each summer and winter, we embark on multiple trips, immersing students in all things Israel. Our mission is to give every Jewish Gator the opportunity to visit Israel.
Our University of Florida trips are designed for University of Florida students to experience Israel with a Jewish Gator community. We welcome family and friends interested in joining our trips on a limited basis but we prioritize UF and Santa Fe students first. Our UF to Israel trips are organized through Israel Outdoors, a Birthright Israel trip provider. More information about our trips can be found on the Israel Outdoors website: israeloutdoors.com/florida
You're eligible for this trip if you're between 18-32 years old and of Jewish descent with at least one Jewish parent (or you converted). You also must have graduated high school by the time of the trip, and you can't be attending a full-time Jewish studies program. Finally, this must be your first Jewish peer trip to Israel since turning 18.
No matter which trip you choose you will have an experience you will never forget.
